How much money does a western teacher need to make in Bangkok?

Content: Universities, however, do look good on a resume, although remember most Thai universities are nowhere near the standard of an average western, Japanese or Korean university. So the positive effect on your resume could be small. Average Salaries for Full-Time Corporate Teaching – I taught at an international company in Bangkok for two years, and started out on a salary of 62,000 baht a month. That is actually low for a full-time corporate job in Bangkok, where the average salary is 70-85,000 baht a month, but full-time corporate jobs are few and far between. As the company I worked for decided to hire their English teachers through an agency, that meant my salary was less, due to the agency taking a cut. Benefits include teaching less than 20 hours a week and often having a lot of freedom to teach what you want, plus very little paperwork. Don’t forget too, you can take on a part-time job like I did to make some extra money, which gave me a salary well over 85,000 baht a month. And yes, on a salary over 85,000 baht, you really are living close to the lap of luxury. The lap itself, though, is reserved for the international schools in Bangkok. Average Salaries at International Schools in Bangkok – An average salary at an international school in Bangkok is between 85,000 and 150,000 baht a month, plus, housing allowance of anything from 10,000 baht to 35,000 baht a month.
