Hey guys! Thanks for the awesome info. I'm currently a TESOL teacher in Vietnam (2+years), but am working towards making the jump from English centers to international schools, and have been thinking quite seriously about Hong Kong. I had planned to be in the classroom by September, but I'm worried that COVID 19 could delay my start by at least 6 months, if not a full year. I'm also concerned about the protests, and China itself. Whats the situation over there at the moment? Can you guys provide any insight?

I didn't use one personally, but I know there are a lot available. I went to visit a company recently to gather more information for my subscribers actually. The company is called experiorasia. If you quote "for teachers" on the application form the owner promised he would be available to connect with you with current employees so you could gain more insight (I would also make a referral fee to be honest with you!) Might be worth checking this out. I found my job on TES and not through an agency. A lot can also be said for emailing schools directly. Hope you manage to find something!

Do you know anything about teaching German in Hong Kong? My native tongue is Bulgarian, I grew up there up until I was 17 and moved to Austria. I'm 26 now, got my secondary education here and am doing a Bachelor's in Linguistics here in Austria as well. I'm not technically a native in German, infact I would say my English is very close to native but my German is not yet there. (Although it's very good and I will make sure to make it as perfect and close to native as I can before I finish my Bachelor's) The weird thing is I'm better at English and so much more comfortable teaching English but have never lived in an anglophone country and have no education from an anglophone country yet. I plan on getting a PGCE or PGDE from the UK after my Bachelor's, it will be in teaching German as a foreign language. Currently looking into the possibility of getting it for two subjects so I have more than "just a foreign language" under my belt. I also plan to get a CELTA at some point. Do I have better chances teaching English or German? Could I perhaps teach both? Is Hong Kong looking for IT teachers lol? I appreciate any and all insights from everyone, even just ideas on what keywords to google can make a big difference sometimes! Thank you in advance. 😊

Yes, I studied 9 years ago but was required to have over 2 weeks experience of volunteering in a primary school. This may have changed now but it was needed at the time. Speak to your college or sixth form and see if they could allow a morning or day each week for experience, or consider taking time out of your holidays for a bit of volunteering. It’ll look great on a personal statement too!

@ForTeachersChannel
@ForTeachersChannel 5 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure it makes much difference if i'm completely honest. I've heard as many success stories from those who already live here as I have from people who currently work in the UK. At the end of the day, if a school wants you they will support you in moving out here. I think having connections with Hong Kong will definitely help you though (especially as you already have an understanding of the culture in a way?) Stay in touch and let me know when you start applying :)

Hello, just to explain that the comment above may be useful if you are looking for a job in an education centre, but it is different for an international school. Most schools will have a week in October, 2/3 weeks for Christmas, 1/2 weeks for Chinese New Year, 1/2 weeks for Easter and 6 weeks for summer, as well as public holidays. So quite a lot of time off! I hope this information is useful for you. I have visited Korea before and had a wonderful time there - I would love to visit again!
