Varee Chiangmai School is currently seeking a dedicated ESL Secondary Teacher for a full-time position. Located near the city center in Chiang Mai, our school offers a unique opportunity to teach both Thai and International Curricula. We are looking for candidates who are enthusiastic about engaging learners and capable of delivering effective lessons based on an established curriculum. Preference will be given to candidates experienced in project-based and active learning.

We offer a competitive salary starting at ฿50,000 per month, with potential earnings up to ฿60,000 per month for qualified teachers with more than three years of experience. Our package includes Allianz Medical Insurance (plan 1), work permit and visa renewal costs covered by the school, nine weeks of paid holiday (excluding public holidays), and a diverse selection of complimentary lunches at our food court.

Our school is committed to the professional development of our teachers through our Teacher Support System (TSS), offering opportunities for both professional and financial growth. Teachers pursuing additional qualifications will receive support from the school and a salary increase upon completion of their studies.

Applicants must possess a Bachelor’s Degree and a teaching qualification from an accredited institution. We are only accepting applications from native English speakers holding passports from the UK, Ireland, US, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand. To apply, please send your CV and cover letter to recruitment@varee.ac.th. Note that while TEFL certificates are valued, they are not considered a professional teaching qualification.

Please mention that you found the job on Teast for the school's reference.

Please review the requirements to teach English in Thailand before applying. If a post says “NES” or “Native English Speaker”, it usually means applicants must be from the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, or South Africa (sometimes it’s a preference, not a hard rule).
Schools receive many applications and may not reply to everyone. If you don’t hear back within a week, move on to the next job.
Watch out for agencies that charge fees or take a cut of your salary. Good agencies are paid by the schools—not by you. If you’re unsure how they make money, ask. If they say they take a percentage, that’s a red flag. Avoid them and let us know so we can ban them.
Never pay to apply. Never pay to “buy something now and get reimbursed later.” Always verify you’re speaking with the actual school (not an impostor). Scams do exist—be careful.
