Hi everyone!
I have just signed up for the Thailand internship, Oct 2011, very exited! I'm currently working as a teachers assistant after finishing uni a few years ago where I studied fashion desin. I'm hoping to get onto a PGCE next year and hope this will help my application (plus, get to live in Thailand for 5 months!).
Hopefully see some of you soon :)

I have taught most everywhere in Thailand, so I am sure I am able to answer any questions you may have. Right now is rainny season....it should be wonderful by the time you get here. :) If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me.

Hi Chloe:
I am now based in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Nope, I am not on the internship but working as a 12 grade teacher in Chiang Mai. So if you need any information from this side of the pond, please let me know. I am sure you guys wont have any problem finding teaching postions or enjoy exploring a new culture.

Hi Ajarn!
Did I read right that you are on the internship at the moment? Where abouts in Thailand are you based?
Hey Chloe,
I've just checked your account. You still have three attempts left on Checkpoint One. I think it has come up with that message as you have saved without submitted, but you definitely got three attempts left. You will recieve feedback from your tutor once this is submitted and if you don't pass you will then be able to resubmit again.

Hey Chloe,
I've just looked into this for you, I can see that Masasko who runs everything from Thailand sent you an email on the 12th May, have you recieved this?
The application process should take a couple of weeks, however if there is a lot of applications this can sometimes dely things. If you have any specific questions about your application you can email Masako on masako_i-to-i@hotmail.co.uk
Hope this helps you!

Hi Chloe,
Not a stupid question at all! You can be placed anywhere in Thailand on the internship, so it isn't just Chaing Mai, Phuket and Bangkok. There is definately an element of suprise to where you will be teaching, but I guess that makes it more exciting!

Hi Chloe!
That's great, there's a few people now :D
I've not yet started my course though, finishing my degree (and enjoying the sunshine) first! How about you? x
Hey Chloe,
Welcome to Chalkboard. That's great you've signed up to the Thailand internship, what has attracted you to teaching in Thailand?

Enjoy the site and feel free to ask me any questiosn you have about the internship or your course :-)
Hi :)
Not booked anything yet... But I think I really want to do it! Just need to get the money, and the courage to actually get it sorted! Have you done any travelling or teaching before? Xxx
yeah i have heard that too, so yes hopefully! i did photography. what about you? i've only just started it really...finding it hard to just get on with it cos when i get in from work its not the first thing i want to do!! but hopefully I'll get into the swing of things soon. let me know how you get on with yours :) x
Hey Chloe are you going on the October Thai internship. I just missed out on the last one but will def be on the next one. I think it will be the best experience you could possibly imagine + everyone who has been on these courses say its the best choice they have ever made.
Whats the plan then?
John
