Position title
IB Physics Teacher – International School in Thailand – August 2026 Start
Description

Are you an experienced IB Diploma Physics teacher passionate about inspiring young scientists? Join an international school in Thailand for the 2026–2027 academic year!

Overview:
You will teach IB Diploma Physics (Standard and/or Higher Level), fostering inquiry-based learning, critical thinking, and scientific reasoning. You will support students’ academic excellence while helping them develop as confident, global-minded learners.

 

The school:

This international school in Nonthaburi, just outside Bangkok, and serves students from Pre-K2 to Grade 12. It follows an American-style, inquiry-based curriculum with AP courses and future plans for the IB Diploma, while also placing strong emphasis on sustainability and the UN SDGs. Teachers are expected to be collaborative, tech-savvy, and adaptable, and benefits include settling-in and signing allowances, health insurance, annual flights, and professional development support. Staff report small class sizes, respectful students, a manageable workload, and supportive leadership, though salaries are above average rather than top-tier for Bangkok. As a newer campus, there are still some growing pains, and the suburban location makes commuting or living nearby an important consideration.

 

Job highlights:

  • Collaborative, supportive international teaching community
  • Opportunities for professional growth and IB-specific training
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Experience life in culturally rich, vibrant Thailand

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Plan, teach, and assess IB Diploma Physics courses aligned with IB standards

  • Incorporate Theory of Knowledge, internal assessments, lab work, and extended investigations
  • Use diverse teaching strategies and technology to support all learners
  • Communicate student progress effectively with students and families
  • Participate in curriculum development, departmental collaboration, and professional growth activities
  • Engage in extracurricular programs, science clubs, competitions, and school events

 

The ideal candidate:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Physics, Science Education, or related field
  • Recognized teaching qualification (B.Ed., M.Ed., PGCE/Teaching License, or equivalent)
  • Experience teaching IB Diploma Physics (SL and/or HL) is required
  • Strong understanding of IB philosophy and inquiry-based pedagogy
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

 

Facts & Figures:
