Before I post details can a mod just verify that it will be okay? My company needs freelance voice talents of ALL languages, who are living in Bangkok. Generally it's for elearning and multimedia courses, and generally it pays more than language teaching. There are some gigs that require professional talents that pay higher. You have to pass a test in our studio and the reality is that probably 2 out of 3 people won't pass. And yes many people who do such work for us don't have previous experience I did think of paying for an ad via google ads but apart from being expensive, I didn't think it would be credible to be mixed in with "Asian dating" and "how to hook up". (tempting sarcasm I know) We do advertise around town in Shakers and Movers, ajarn.com and other places as well as handing out cards at foreign Chambers of Commerce. The attraction of TF is that there are a lot of nationalities here. If you only want personal ads not ads from companies, that is okay or you can suggest a reasonable fee perhaps? (It's not exactly expensive to put an ad on ajarn.com or in Shakers and Movers). Genuine work and ongoing needs...

For Thailand Friend users only I am thinking of running a fun totally FREE basic composition photography workshop later this month. This is partly due to my rather less than considered Forum Threads I started when I first joined this website. ( Please don't search for them ). The workshop will take place at my Photography School in Chidlom, it will be relaxed and fun but I will teach some fundamental photography compositional techniques of use to photographers of all levels. I want to make sure I get a good response before posting a date but it will be early in March. Knowing about the no direct marketing allowed on websites like this I will leave you to find out about the school and me as a photographer. Google Photography School Bangkok, Asia or my name will give you any additional information if needed. For the critique at the end of the day's photography a bottle of wine goes down well. Beats giving the teacher an apple. Just a thought but please do get in touch ASAP if interested. Thanks, Jonathan Taylor

Hi....I am looking for some advice about looking for some good international schools to work. I am not finding it easy to search on the internet from England as I dont seem to find many good schools, so any advice about websites or agencies or schools would be appreciated,I am a qualified teacher of mathematics but many jobs from ajarn (the only job search ive been notified of) dont reallyb seem right for me, so any advice would be much appreciated Many thanks ......Paula

Me, along with many other TF guys, are English teachers. Every day that we read journal/forum posts we see English mistakes made by non-English speaking members. My question is this: Do you want us (or maybe just me) to correct you? In public and for everyone to see? Can you handle that? If you want private lessons, we are for hire, but if you want free lessons you'll have to do it for all to see and for all to benefit. If you agree, I'll put you on a list of "okay to correct" and will correct you and show it publicly. If you don't agree, I understand, of course! But learning through mistakes is a very effective learning tool! What do you think? P.S. I may be sorry that I offered this! hahahaha
