Hello, i hope anyone can help me. I am in the process of looking into travelling and whilst i am there teaching English for about 6 months in Thailand. However, joining agencies cost about 600 quid! Although they sort the schools, paperwork etc it really eats into my travel spending cash! Can't have that! So i found a site that says you should just arrive to Bangkok and sort it yourself. Does anyone have any experience with this? I really need some help and guidance as i am doing it alone and on a very tight budget. So any help would be greatly appreciated;)

Michelle,
Why don't you start reading the 'stickman's webpage? He has lived and worked in Thailand for over 10 years. His site has plenty of info on teaching English in Thailand. Google 'stickman + bangkok' and pull up his site. Good Luck.
