MediaKids Academy

The pay is the lowest in all Thailand. They try to make as much money as they can from you and don't take good care of you. Even if I loved the school I was working in, I would never ever work for Mediakids again.
They don't inform you well about the place where you are going and they can change their minds about your destination whenever they feel like it.
If you are not a native speaker you are worth nothing to them and they will despise you as well as pay you much less than to native speakers, even if you have a masters and teaching experience.
During orientation we weren't told much and when they say they will reimburse you for your visa that's just not true. They give you back 3'000 Baht when just the trip there and getting your visa will cost you over 10'000 plus a visa extension that is another 2'000 so they are not paying for much.
They place you in the accommodation that they want and then you cannot leave it or you would have to pay an entire month's rent as a fee to leave the place.
Once you are in it's difficult to get out so don't do it.
Simply awful.

I've only had good experiences with MediaKids.

They have taken care of everything I've needed since my arrival here in Thailand.
From opening a bank account, purchasing a Thai sim card to the full visa and work permit process.

I was put up in a hotel for orientation. Many cultural norms and etiquette was discussed during the orientation and I found that very helpful. i was taught some basic Thai greetings and given tips on being polite and friendly the Thai way; which is really important when you are a guest in a foreign country.

The first school I was placed at had quite a few teachers from different parts of the world teaching for MediaKids. It was an eye-opener and lovely to be exposed to citizens of even more countries. Lasting friendships were forged and I am grateful for that.

A full curriculum is provided for you, with help at any stage of the game literally a phone call away. Flashcards and test are available to download and print.

The ongoing support from the MediaKids consultants has helped me to grow as a teacher.
I feel confident moving to a new province and teaching and living there knowing that I am supported by the MediaKids staff members.

Media kids has got to be the worst agency that I've ever worked with. Unprofessional, corrupt, and the communication sucks. They do what they want when they want with very little notice to us. And it doesn't matter what your contract says. You get paid once a month at night! I had a good experience in Thailand as I made the best out of my situation. However, the company is very corrupt I highly recommend you run when you see them coming. From the consultants with the strong accents and you trying to make out their words. To expensive paperwork that you need to complete each month. Your promised a reimbursement by the end of the month and then surprise they say oh we'll pay you end of this semester!! They are full of terrible surprises. Say no to media kids.

Hello guys I'm Teacher Nhel and I'm proud to be part of Mediakids Academy. One of the best happened to me here in Thailand is to be an ESL Teacher. Life is really amazing when you're working with great people. I love Thai culture the way they respect teachers. When you love to discover new culture and to travel at the same time mediakids is one of the best company here in Thailand. I've been working with Mediakids for almost four years now and it's really a great experience. Once you're a Teacher you'll never stop sharing your knowledge and you'll never stop learning at the same time. We have different consultants who always there to guide us with our visas, work permit and including our safe accomodation. It's not all about the salary all the time but it's all about how will they treat you in one company. I love Mediakids as it's best. They changed my life to better . I really enjoy working abroad with Mediakids. Life is really amazing to work here in Thailand with Mediakids. I will definitely recommend Mediakids because I've been part of the company since 2015.

PS. Be one of us 😊😊😊
More power and God bless to all of us😊😊😊

Your journey begins here. 😃

Working with mediakids is great.Teaching in Thailand is not that easy, but, with Mediakids, everything is flawless, the uneased feeling has lifted because of the supportive staff.At first, it was not easy.I have made some adjustments especially with the culture.The best thing I have done is to learn how to embrace and love theirs as mine.In just more than a month when I realized that I am enjoying and loving my new environment.
If you want to learn and explore, do it while teaching.This is the best place to do such things.I maybe subjective if I say Mediakids is one of the best programs I have worked with but thats how I assess them.I cant imagine myself doing stuffs alone to be legalized as worker in this foreign country, thankful to be with Mediakids.With full support and assistance from the staff, no way to feel alone.
