Anyone here currently teaching or teach in vietnam?

[AlexanderAcolyte]

Was wondering how it is teaching over there, pay, accomodation, city location, what months you can get hired for, contract etc.

Unsure if I'm going to finish my degree before september to chinamaxx so was wondering if i could do with a mini arc in vietnam don't want to suffer as a canacuck for much longer than that.

AFAIK jobs are found via random facebook groups and/or network - though you could ask chatgpt deep research to find other shit. Whereas in China it's just Echinacities + recuiters (which you usually get from applying for jobs on echinacities)

Reborn Abroad on youtube has a million videos about teaching in Vietnam without a degree. It gets harder every year but still possible. Basically every question he discusses though he's not 100% right about everything, especially for China. He kinda specializes in training centers and lower-level jobs

China almost always mogs in terms of pay and infrastructure, but personally I'd definitely be tempted to live in HCMC for a year if I did somehow save the same amount of money I do in China and still only work part time. Based lifestyle there

The whole AQI thing isn't the end of the world if you're living in 1 place long-term and plug in an air purifier in every single room - but yeah definitely keeps you inside most of the year
