Master's Degree in appropriate field plus several years of high school teaching required ... The salary range is 30,000-50,000 baht commensurate with qualifications and experience.Why would someone with that sort of experience even bother to get out of bed for such a piddling amount of money?

For the fringe benefits, perhaps?



TU lecturer faces dismissal for oral sex allegation

(BangkokPost.com) - Thammasat University lecturer at the Faculty of Engineering Kamthorn Cherdchukiat is expected to be dismissed after the university found out that he forced a female student to perform oral sex for him in exchange of good grades.

Dean of the Engineering Faculty Auruya Weesakul said she has written an urgent report on the case, forwarded it to the university's dean Surapol Nitikraipoj and recommended that Mr Kamthorn be dismissed.

She also said that Mr Kamthorn, 33, confessed to the crime and said he is willing to face punishment.

"The university will not help him because his action is immoral," she said. "Being a teacher means you have to set a good example to students. But when a teacher does something like this, it is not acceptable."

According to Dr Auruya, Mr Kamthorn served as an assistant lecturer for six years before being given a full-time job as a lecturer at the university early this year.

Mr Kamthorn, who is married with two children, was caught on tape for trying to molest a female student. The student and her parents then reported the case to the police.

Don't teams have a position for pedants, surely a position for which your expertise qualifies you.

And a commonly accepted concept, that specific words have specific meanings.

And a commonly accepted concept, that specific words have specific meanings.Quite so - private means "not public"; it does not necessarily mean "secret" or even "confidential". Those are different specific words. I made a private visit to Udon Thani over the weekend. That is, it had nothing to do with my business activities in Udon Thani. It was not a secret. And before you protest about that use of the word "private", it's used in the context of private visits ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Co ... izabeth_II (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Commonwealth_visits_made_by_Queen_Elizabet h_II) ), private homes, private yachts, blah blah blah - none of them secret nor confidential

that counts you out Homiterm, you need to be dynamic, flexible and a creative team player, let alone educated, qualified and respect others' opinions. Mind you the money might be around what you earn/or earned "at your level".

Have to agree with Homeintern on this one.. "Masters Degree" "Department Head in teaching" experience? for $975 a month? What a joke. My 24 year old BF makes half that as a receptionist LOL.

Clutching at straws, old boy! The references that you make to the use of the word "private", in the context of Brenda, are to differentiate between private and state visits/homes, in which state visits are on official business in her capacity as Head of State. A role for which you may be entirely suited, but have not yet attained.

Hence your visit to Udon Thani, was personal rather than business, unless you wanted to make it private, which is clearly not the case having announced it on a public forum.

Low or not, that's about average for teaching in Thailand. I know a few guys with Ph.D's who don't make much more and work 6-7 days a week.

One guy I know makes most of his money with one-on-one lessons at 1000B per hour for rich Thai-Chi kids destine for some western university. One 11 year old boy told him, "you know I'm so rich I can buy and sell you?"
