Abstract

Immersion education is a form of content-based instruction where English serves as the primary medium for teaching academic subjects rather than being taught in isolation. These programs are strategically designed to facilitate subject-matter mastery in a target language while ensuring the students' native language development remains unaffected. This study aims to synthesize existing literature regarding the implementation of immersion education within bilingual classrooms in Thailand. Adopting a qualitative library research design, the study investigates the operational procedures and the pedagogical obstacles encountered by educators in Thailand's bilingual settings.The findings highlight the current state of immersion practices and the specific difficulties faced by teachers in the field. The study concludes that while immersion education is an effective model for enhancing English proficiency among high-level students in Thailand, its primary implementation hurdle remains the teachers' limited English language competency
