The cost of living is low, the inflation is low, the healthcare system is now much better, Vietnam is much more socially, politically and economically stable than many countries in the world particularly in Asia. Just look at the bloody mess in Thailand last week, the human trafficking problems in Cambodia and the current lockdowns in China! In other countries, the winter is coming up, and the natural gas prices are increasing - 6 times higher than last year! Wish I were there in Vietnam 😁

Hi :) I’d love to help you with your question The central of Vietnam faces a huge problem of Annual floods. Idk why that’s the case, something with the geographic of course. I think I should learn more about the underlying cause later. The North and the South almost never face this challenge. Whenever there’s flood in the centre, there will be long days of rain in the other 2 parts. At least that’s my experience living in the South. However, we have the ‘metaphorical’ flood in the South 😅 to explain, the water drainage system isn’t advanced, plus people throw out trash on the streets, so there’s usually water all over the city and thus, traffic problems. Just note that it’s not like that every day and it depends on the roads and the area in which you live. District 2 of Ho chi minh city is a popular area for expats but it’s also notorious for the flood 😂

Partly true. You must know that English centers in Vietnam are like business. They use white teachers as a marketing tool: charging higher fees, we're serious that we have only native English speakers. If you speak English without an accent you still have chance to get a job as English teacher in Vietnam. You have to make video presentation or to come to face to face appointment to prove your unaccented pronunciation. I know a Filipino professor teaching Economics at a most privileged university in Hanoi. And another Filipino English teacher in Vietnam she makes $23 dollars per hour. She has video in KZfaq.

HK, Macau and Singapore are expensive but honestly it's worth it to not have deal with the bs in Vietnam. It'll also be much easier for the guy that asked to find work because they put more restrictions on getting in. Like a strict requirement on having a degree and being a native speaker (except China). Japan is a bit of a mix in the sense that for some jobs they do allow people to teach who have had most of their education done in English. It also appears that guy who asked may not be white and trust me on this he will have a much easier time in the places I listed finding a good job as a non white native speaker. It really that much easier for a non white native speaker to find a good job in the places I listed. They'll have way more choices than they would in Vietnam. In Vietnam the most likely choices are ILA, EMG, VUS, APOLLO, APAX and a few other fake corporate companies that push fake professionalism. If those are the best choices then that's a problem. The number one thing is that how true and realistic are people being about Vietnam online. The big error I made was saying he should get certified in the US since he's Canadian.

They are revisions of translation. I have nothing against a faithful translation from one language to another but it is a revision of translation. Amen! I learnt that one of the fifty-four translators of King James was so good at languages that if he was there, at the tower of Babel, at the time when God confounded the languages, he would be an interpreter.

I'm coming to teach in January 2023, not in a weird way but do you know any South Africans that I can connect with? .... well what I'm trying to say is that it would help a lot to talk to some people before I come to Vietnam.

Hello. Some people are leaving because of cultural differences: people go to toilette in public places. On the streets. Is this so?

Interesting video! I would have a question for you if you have time, please: do you know if it's possible to stay more than one month in Vietnam or if an E-Visa is the only option. Also, if I leave Vietnam to re-enter it, is there a minimal amount of time that I've got to stay out of the country? Thank you very much, thanks for your videos and have a great day! :D
@ninja.teacher Жыл бұрын
E-visas are the only option other than working, marriage, family or investment visas. You can exit and re-enter immediately though.

Yeah I did 3 E-visas within a few months, and I heard of other people doing them back to back to back consecutively, just going into Cambodia and coming back into VN on the same day or next day.

Low cost of living yes but very low quality of living too. Bangkok has much higher standards and is ironically a tad more affordable.

Huh... I have been conservationist all my life, I have never thought about being a language teacher. Not to showoff, but I can speak 6 languages fluently, namely English, Mandarin, Malay, Indonesian, Hokkien and Iban (People usually don't really care about the last two though XD). I think I will take language teacher into consideration after I finish my Master's degree. I think there should be a demand for my language skills. Thanks for making such a video! And thank you KZfaq algorithm for suggesting your video to me out of a sudden!

You might enjoy the process of teaching others a language as someone who has learned so many. 👍

Vietnam is next to China so there are lots of job positions that require candidates to know Chinese, so if you want to teach Mandarin, there will always be opportunities here.

Thanks for this interesting information! - What I would like to know, are there other languages besides English required to be learnt in Vietnam, such as German and Spanish....? I'm from Germany, I'm holding a TEFL diploma for teaching English (been working and traveling with the English language all my life) and I lived in Spain a few years so that my knowledge in Spanish is at least equally good as in English.

Hey mate, I have a question. How hard is it REALLY to teach in HCMC without a degree? I'm American and have 3 years of teaching experience in Cambodia, as well as a TEFL. As far as I can tell, I'd have to work part-time at language centers. What visa should I be looking at?

A degree is requirement to get a work permit and work legally in Vietnam.

You might get Tesol to teach English and the schools will recommend you what you should get easily as long as you are English native speakers. I’m a Vietnamese living in the US ☺️

What do you think about the average salary in big city like Ha Noi, Saigon at this moment? I heard it is insanely lower compared to the living cost for a family!!
@ninja.teacher6 ай бұрын
That depends on your circumstances. If you are just a couple and bringing in two ESL teacher incomes then you can live really well. If you have a child or children and want to send them to international schools, they are insanely expensively. I don't think it's realistic then unless you become a licensed teacher and work at international schools yourself (which usually lowers your children's fees significantly).
