My experience with KET has been great so far, even pre departure Matt and his team were so helpful and informative. It made the move super easy and comfortable and once I arrived they were in constant contact and provided everything necessary to assimilate nicely into Thai culture.
The few days training on arrival really helped boost confidence in making to move to my new city and to feel more comfortable in Thailand as well as providing a great starting base for teaching. Would highly recommend KET to others!

Pros
  • Great communication and support
  • Friendly staff
  • Great connections

Kids English Thailand

Great company to go with. The staff are ready to help you at any time. Your problem could be translation, medical problems, car accident, they have seen it all and can sort you out without any problems. Gives you the opportunity to travel to the less travelled parts of the country and get a better insight into the culture. The training sets you up well to live in the country and intigrate into your school. Would recommend the program to everyone who wants to come here. Thailand is what you make it , if you come with a open mind you will have a excellent time.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Come with a open mind and be willing to learn from the people around you. The best people to learn from are the people you work with. If you have a open mind you will have many great spontaneous experiences.

Teaching English with Kids English Thailand

Kids English Thailand have been an excellent company since our first interaction with them before we even arrived in the country, they have given us thorough support, training and guidance which gave us confidence and prepared us for our placement. We applied very late in the year so we were not able to choose where we went, but KET still managed to find us 2 positions at the same school, even if our placement town is a little quiet! Overall our experience with KET and Thailand has been excellent

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Definitely try to learn as much Thai as possible, quickly. The faster you learn and the more words you pick up, the easier your life will be! And your Thai colleagues will also appreciate it.

My whole experience with Kids English Thailand has been absolutely fantastic thus far.
Matthew provided me with all the necessary information and what I need before I left to come here.
I was guided all the way and helped with absolutely everything as soon as I arrived.
The training was first class and very experienced as Matthew has been doing this for a long time and is highly experienced.
I have been placed in a great school and I am very excited.
Despite the weather factor, it will be a great experience have the help of Kids English Thailand

Teaching English with Kids English Thailand

I decided to come to Thailand following the loosening of the covid restrictions in the UK. I was supported throughout the whole preparation process and the documentation was very simple and easy to acquire. KET were in constant contact and supportive in expediting the process.
Once I had arrived in Bangkok, KET organised transport to Sukhothai to engage in a training camp, although the camp did come at a substantial cost, it was completely worth it and was, in my opinion, necessary to my acclimatisation in Thailand. KET then drove me to the school placement town, a school they had found which conveniently needed two teachers in my partner and I, and had organised the accommodation that we would be staying in.

While the town we are staying in is a very small and the social opportunities are limited, KET have kept in regular contact to ensure we were having a good time and settling into the job well.

We were offered exceptional support through an unforeseen and tumultuous issue with visa documentation which with support was solved with minimal hoop jumping necessary.

In conclusion, KET were very helpful in getting us to Thailand quickly and helping us deal with several unexpected issues. While the placement town is quiet and lacks in social ability the advice given to us about being patient and language learning has paid off and a small circle of Thai and Filipino friends has now developed. KET have been essential in our fantastic year so far and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to have a hassle and carefree time in Thailand.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
The road rules and general traffic in Thailand was a total shock to me. Thanks to KET's training camp, I was well equipped to deal with the plentiful unexpected traffic issues. (flashing headlights is completely different in this part of the world!!)

Kids English Thailand GREAT!

Even before arriving in Thailand, KET provided help and assistance to make sure everything ran smoothly. I was confident that things would work out and they would be there if ever I needed them. Their support continued when I arrived in the country as they arranged for me to get from Phuket to Sukhothai where training took place. All of the staff at KET were great, I enjoyed cultural activities such as going to a market and making papaya salad. Matt, who's company it is, ran the training. He is a charismatic guy who explains things really well. After training I felt ready to begin my teaching adventure. Ever since, Matt and his team have always been on the other end of the phone whenever I needed help.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Do everything with a positive attitude and go with the flow.

Kids English Thailand. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Kids English Thailand. Truly amazing experience working with them! The KET team is very professional, friendly and always ready to help. They are always in touch. Teacher training program upon arrival is also provided by the team. And it's very useful. It helps to understand not only Thai culture better, but as well the process of teaching here and many other aspects that are really important to know for comfortable stay in the country. The team helped with all the documents, provided me with SIM card, helped to find accommodation etc. I'm really grateful to Kids English.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Read the pre-departure guide carefully. It really helps and all the information in it is very useful.
