Teach in Thailand with CIEE | Guaranteed Placement Before Departure

My adventure to Thailand took place in the beautiful province of Petchabun. It was more of a rural placement and that initially had me a little nervous about potential challenges. However, the challenges were not too daunting! I quite enjoy the nature and peaceful area while still being able to travel to more busy areas to do other things. In a short period of time, I was able to enjoy holidays and festivals, hang out with other teachers and explore the local area. In free time I can learn Thai, cook and exercise. The staff at the school always offer their time to support and share with you their culture. So overall, there are many things to do as long as you take the time to plan it. I really cannot wait to explore more and travel throughout the country.

This has been an amazing experience. I’m so glad I have had to opportunity to do this. I have met so many cool people and have been able to immerse myself in a new culture. I have learned so much, and seen the coolest places. My school and my kids are awesome and the support I have from the programs are incredible. I am so glad that I chose to do this after college as a way to get to know myself and see more of the world. I recommend this to anyone who doesn’t know which career path they want to take.

CIEE has provided me with an incredible experience to travel overseas for an extended period of time while also making enough money to break even and even save money to return to the U.S. I am so happy with my school placement and cannot wait for the adventures of a lifetime these next 10 months in Thailand.

CIEE creates a fun, safe, and collaborative environment! I taught in Uttaradit for 6 months and had so much support through CIEE staff, the locals, and the other members of my travel buddies. I had plenty of time on the weekends and holidays to travel, whether that was by myself or with the friends I met along the way. Figuring out the ins and outs of traveling was easy with CIEE. I was paid almost double what locals get paid, so money was never an issue. Things in Thailand tend to be cheap too.

I would 100% recommend the Teach in Thailand program through CIEE. Following college, I had the dream of teaching while traveling abroad, and through this organization, that dream was able to come true. CIEE was affordable, reliable and helped make the pre-departure process go as smooth as possible. I highly advise doing this program, and have absolutely nothing negative to say. This was by far the opportunity of a lifetime! I was able to travel the country, teach the MOST adorable students all while making a surplus of friends.

After graduating from college, I was looking for opportunities to teach abroad and CIEE was highly recommended; I am so happy I decided to do this experience with them! Before I even officially applied for the program, I was able to speak with the Teach In Thailand US coordinator to gather details about the program such as pay and housing. I also made frequent calls with her when applying for the program (it's a rigorous process to teach in Asia and I needed a lot of support, CIEE was there for me the whole application process!)They have continued to support me through my teaching and living in Thailand for the past 6 months. I trust this program so much that I decided to sign up for a full year abroad, and it has been the best decision! (bonus perk, you get a stipend for teaching for the entire year and a 10% discount if you sign up for another program with them again). So many non-CIEE teachers that I have spoken to in Thailand have had questionable or difficult experiences with the program they chose to travel and teach with; I can honestly say I have NO complaints with my experience with CIEE! The support you have with the team in Thailand is so amazing; I've gotten support anywhere from step-by-step Visa application instructions to restaurant and hostel recommendations! If you are wanting to teach abroad, I would DEFINITELY go with CIEE

After graduating college I decided that I wanted to teach abroad. When I researched programs CIEE was one of the first ones to come up. CIEE provided many unique teaching opportunities that really stuck out to me. I decided to apply for their 12 month Teach in Thailand Program, and it was the best decision I have made! CIEE supported me through every step of the application process. Even as I've been teaching and living here for nearly half a year they are still here to support me. I have grown so much through this experience and can not wait to see what the next few months hold!

I have really enjoyed using CIEE to travel to Thailand as a teacher! They have been so willingly helpful since I started my application process back in 2020, and they continue to provide full support for me during my time abroad. Everyone in the staff is very kind and attentive. They are always looking to do whatever they can to make this experience the best it can be for us. I would absolutely recommend using this program to travel abroad because they have made every moment easy, fun and worthwhile!
