About Khon Kean
The more popular tourist destinations in Thailand are Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket, and Chiang Mai, but you can argue that these places tend to be overly commercialised. If you want to see the real Thailand and experience the local people, customs and traditions, then Isaan is the place to be.
Northeast Thailand is often neglected by tourists so what better reason do you need to come. It is also a good starting point for excursions into Laos and border visits to Cambodia
Our TEFL Training Centre
Our four week, 120 hour course is based at Khon Kean University and offers university standard instruction to native or near-native speakers of English. The TEFL Certificate program provides trainees the skills necessary for teaching EFL/ESL to learners throughout the world.
In addition to theories of ESL, the course is very focused on practical, hands-on experience. Beginning in the first week of the course, our trainees teach (under the guidance of highly skilled trainers) ESL classes to local students in local Thai schools. The course has two main components: Input Sessions, which involves information about methodology and language awareness; and Teaching Practicum.
Accommodation
Cheap, comfortable accommodation is available near the University. Our staff will make the arrangements for you before you arrive in Thailand. Rooms are basic with fan or air con and some have cable TV depending on your budget.
