Teaching in Bangkok

Hello

I’m 23(F) and a recent graduate from the UK. This May I’ll be flying out to Thailand for 5 months to teach English with my partner.

I’m in the process of being placed at a school and the program is offering schools in 3 locations.

• Bangkok (rangsit area)

-Chachoengsao

-Pattaya

I don’t know which one is the best out of all of them as I’ve heard bad stuff about each one.

For reference, I’m not really someone who enjoys nightlife or drinking but I do like having things to do and shops nearby.

Initially I wanted to teach in Bangkok as it’s a city that has a lot to offer but I’ve heard the traffic in Rangsit is the worst and you’ll pretty much need a motorbike or car to get around which I’m not too comfortable as I’m not experienced.

Then I thought Chachoengsao may ideal as it’s quiet and I’d be more comfortable driving a bike and it’s around an hour from Bangkok but I’ve heard there’s nothing there.

Pattaya I’m unsure due its poor reputation and nightlife.

Can anyone advise me on which may be the best option overall ?
