About us
Our Purpose
If you look at most problems in Thailand, the key to fixing them is education. Lack of access to high quality English education is an issue that English Gang (EG) is striving to fix. Once Thai children are able to learn English, a gigantic world of knowledge will open up to them via different forms of media, mainly from the Internet.
Access to high quality online English as a Second Language (ESL) education has grown tremendously in countries like Korea, Japan and China with an estimated 1.5 billion people across the world studying ESL. This is opening doors and creating worldwide opportunities for those students.
The Internet in Thailand is good and it is getting better every week. On top of that, there are many highly qualified English teachers from the USA to the UK that are passionate about teaching English. By providing the teachers and students with English Gang curriculum inside of an easy to use platform, we are well positioned to improve Thailand on a nationwide level.
Our Curriculum
Developed by Masters of Curriculum Development graduates from the USA and UK, the English Gang curriculum consists of 300 lessons in our General Instruction Course to over 400 lessons in our Business and Conversation courses. They focus on phonics, vocabulary growth, speaking and listening skills, and grammar, all made and produced by the English Gang team. It has been accredited by Boston ESL, and is currently under the accreditation process with ESL Stars.
Our Teachers
We selectively hire our teachers through a rigorous interview process looking at resumes, cover video submissions, online interviews and mock classes to ensure that the teachers have high energy, friendly demeanour and strong teaching skills. We only hire native English speaking teachers that have received the minimum of a Bachelor’s degree or have at least 3 years experience teaching ESL to children.
