  I was an employee here. It's NOT a good place to work. You won't get your work permit. You will make crap pay. You'll loose a TON of money from being sick. You'll have to deal with an unorganized mess. 5 teaching hours a day, essentially back to back lessons, sometimes requiring you to move to the students classroom. Then you'll waste 2 hours a day in a taxi, during which you can't get any work done due to the road and driving conditions in Thailand. AND you get back to the office and are expected to do X,Y, & Z even though you have already put in 8+ hours that day. I was having to work on Saturday, during my free time to accomplish their task. Oh yeah btw doing X, Y, & Z is essentially busy work and serves no real purpose. In addition, some of the Thai staff are quite rude. You'll find yourself in a battle with your Thai teacher for classroom control on occasion (most of the Thai Teachers are good, just a few bad apples) and you don't get paid during the summer break. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT WORK HERE. My new job is SO MUCH BETTER. They take advantage of foreigners.

  I worked for Fun Language off and on for over 2 years. Living in Thailand for over 3 years, I realized Thai companies all have good and bad to them when comparing to back home. The goal is just to have more good than bad. You have to look at this country and appreciate the great things and try to avoid/ignore the bad. I can honestly say that Fun Language being my first teaching job was a great choice for a few reasons. 1. They gave me fully developed detailed lesson plans and all resources which made things really easy 2. I worked in the Bangkok office where they have over 40 foreign teachers, so I made lots of friends quickly 3. The trainers they have are all really nice and helped me a ton, even though I wasn’t a good teacher in the early stages A few things to know that I didn’t realize right away, but should have paid better attention to initially. 1. You get 4 sick days, try not to use them because if you don’t use them they pay you an extra days pay for each one at the end of your contract. 2. Try not to call in sick because in your pay is a 2k baht sick bonus, if you call in sick you only get 40k for the month. I get it because it’s Bangkok and easy to want to take a day off, but the months that I did call in sick I was always mad at myself when I got 40k instead of 42k on my paycheck. 3. They take a deposit out of your paycheck of 5% of your pay because of all the materials they give you. I didn’t like it at first, but when I finished I got all of it back because I didn’t lose anything. Was nice to get all the money back at the end before I left the country. 4. They pay you all the normal Thai holidays during term, but during the ½ month in Oct and March/April when it’s not term, they reduce your pay to 10k per month if you don’t work. They do give you the option of doing holiday camps and pay normal pay during those days and the smaller amount on the other days you don’t work. WORK ON THE BREAK!!! I took some time off but worked some weeks to get more pay, which helps out big time. The biggest thing I miss is seeing all the foreign teachers every day, it was always a good time hanging out at the office and after work. The biggest thing I don’t miss is waking up early in the morning, I hated the days I had early starts. The days with 8:30 starts were ok, but 7am starts are crazy to me. If you're new to teaching or new teaching in a different country this is the job for you, but if you have 4+ years of experience teaching, you can get a lot more money and work less other places so hold out for something different. You don't really need experience for this company because they train you, so they don't pay anything extra for experience.
