Thai Education Ministry aims to cut foreign English tutors
The Education Ministry plans to recruit its first batch of 500 Thai teachers who teach English in state-run schools nationwide to undergo a “train-the-trainer” programme in a bid to reduce the cost of hiring foreign English teachers.
Deputy Education Minister Teerakiat Jareonsettasin said those Thai English language teachers will be selected from public schools across the country to undergo the six-week intensive programme from the British Council’s English specialists who have experience in English-language teaching management on a global scale.
