Yes, teachers shouldn't do too much talking. I am reminded by the 70-30 rule that I learned in my TEFL course. You want the students talking in English 70% of the time and the instructor roughly 30%.

In Vietnam, shared housing costs one about $300 a month; daily eating out costs about $250 a month; gasoline (for a scooter) is about $10 a month; utility bills cost about $40 a month. As a result, a total cost for monthly basic needs for one person is about $600. If an English teacher in Vietnam, earns about $2000 a month (an average of $20 an hour and 25 hours a week). He/she still have about $1400 left every month after all basic needs expenses. What does he/she do with $1400 every month in Vietnam where the cost of living is very low - going to parties or travelling or saving!

Kyle, I really like your rule of "be nice" and all the things that includes. Some of my students now really don't know how to be nice.

Marvelous video! And correct, listening is more than talking, more important and more difficult. Story-tellers we have enough on th planet. Greetings from Jürgen Brand

Great advice Alex and Kyle, thanks!

Dear Alex, I look forward to teaching where you are now. I'm going to get my TESL/TEFL at a Canadian university this fall to go with my English Writing degree I acquired in New York. I'm an American/Canadian looking to change my life. I'm into martial arts, meditation, and all sorts of Asian foods. What passport should I travel as? An American or Canadian? Is the demand also very good at this time? I have helped people with English pronunciation for free, but I never taught officially, so that concerns me a bit. Also, is the internet there quite strong? Thanks for reading this in advance. :) P.S. - Do they give lesson plans? Rather, do they give you the material and you have to create your own lesson plan? I'm not sure how that works there.

Great tips - cheers!

Thanks

Can I do this when I am 40 years old? Such a sweet looking gig you got as a Teacher.

Great tips!

Great English teacher!

very informative

I would probably use more positive reinforcement rather than folder marks and tally marks next to students' names. I can't agree with this type of discipline to do folder marks.

If you have to write the name of a student that's misbehaving do you just pull there file to make sure you don't spell there name wrong? seems kinda stressful:/

I talk a lot during my class and it should be the opposite actually!! I m still trying to fund techniques to make them talk !

I guess your gym is fit24 in Ho Xuan Huong arena? If it is, VBA basketball season is coming in case you're interested in basketball, and it's a home of HCMC Wings. I highly recommend

Hey there Alex, After a long conversation about travel over drinks with a buddy that now calls China his second home, he mentioned TEFL certification, which led me to your channel. Being a writer of both song and prose, teaching english seems right up my alley, and I find myself immensely interested in the 'Ninja Teacher' program. I just have one question, I'm certain I know the answer, but just to confirm so I can map out how long it will take to save the money; airfare isn't included in the price of the 'Ninja Teacher' program, correct? Anyway, love your videos so far, hoping to make the leap to making a living abroad sooner than later. Thanks!

Great info Alex! Are all your teachings in a classroom or are you also teaching English online? Thanks!

HI Alex , would you suggest teaching abroad for friends/couples that are wanting to travel together. I'm assuming the best option would be to find positions once we are in the country. And did you do your TEFL in Cape Town? I would love to support a fellow South Africans business if we could carry this conversation further over email. My Girlfriend and I are weighing out options on traveling and working and teaching English in Vietnam is sounding the most promising.

Can anyone on here help me what steps to take to teach english to foriegn people. Set up and conference

I'm wondering where that gym is and the pool. I'm in HCMC

what app is that you are using in the beginning???

Just can't get over the fact that some people would look out onto a sea or a forest of concrete (about 11:45) and see beauty!

Happy songkran

Ninja Teacher, thankkk u very much for sharing. I was in College for 3 years Ninja as a Senior Teacher no degree at the moment and I'm over 50 but the Recruiter from TELF told me that there s no problem about the age. Is it possible for me.?

I imagine most teaching jobs in Vietnam are similar to hagwon jobs in Korea, with kindergarten and elementary students mostly? Are there any opportunities to teach in private or public elementary schools there? I've seen positions for private schools in Korea which are very appealing. Do you think there are similar jobs like that in Vietnam or Thailand?

How long are the usual classes in Vietnam?

How much does doing your TESOL cost with your business Ninja?

Are there a lot of teaching jobs in places like Morocco and places like that? Helpful vid btw

Green Papaya = really good for you.

Could you demo a name game?

i already had skype interview with one of the company reps and we discussed the price of the TEFL coarse, I plan on taking the coarse in september but i forgot how much the TEFL coarse went for. If you can could you please shoot me a message so I can know the price.

Awesome videos. Your sunnies always suck though 😂✌️

Hi Alex, how many languages can you speak???

How old are you guys?
