i'm currently in Thailand, just finishing my Celta. I have many opportunities for volunteering work in Thailand, and one starts in May. I would like to get a job (any teaching job even if the pay is crap) to keep me going until that time...i have about a 1000pounds and even if accomadation and food is paid for up until that time, it still might be a stretch. i know media kids used to do short term rural jobs, but they appear to no longer be in business. the only other short term jobs i can find are part of tefl courses...so...anyone know any public school recruiters who i can ask for short term contracts?

I think that your best opportunity is by working for one of the many Language Schools such as ECC, Inlingua etc.

Media kids are still in business, but this is the slow time of the year in Thailand.

Check Ajarn.com very good sight for jobs, both long and short term.
Very Happy

I have an email address for MediaKids recruiting staff. They are basically full right now, last I talked with them, but they sometimes have openings mid-term if people leave or get axed.

PM me if you would like a email address/phone number for them. Not sure why their website is down, but they are still around.

It is more likely to be 'under the radar' so to speak, for very short term work anyway.
