The Fewer Things: 5 Month Thailand TEFL Program

The Thailand Starter Program from The Fewer Things is designed for beginners looking to explore teaching in Thailand, with two tracks tailored to your qualifications.

Degree Holders:

Graduates with a degree complete the 4-week 120-Hour Advanced TEFL Course and are placed in a paid teaching internship across Thailand, typically 5 months. Students receive work permit sponsorship, housing support, and full guidance to settle in.

Non-Degree Participants:

Applicants without a degree complete the same 120-Hour Advanced TEFL Course in Hua Hin, followed by a paid teaching internship at local schools. This track also runs 5 months and provides housing, orientation, and full support to ensure participants gain hands-on teaching experience in a safe, welcoming environment.

Across both tracks, TFT manages all logistics — from visa guidance, document authentication, and orientation to 24/7 in-country support — so participants can focus on teaching, cultural immersion, and connecting with fellow graduates. This program is perfect for gap-year students, recent graduates, or anyone new to TEFL seeking a structured, supportive, and unforgettable experience in Thailand.
