South East Asia TEFL: Teach in Vietnam

Teach in Vietnam: most English language teachers take jobs at language centers, although some public schools can now afford to hire TEFL certified teachers. The work week typically entails 25-30 hours of class time in addition to lesson planning and preparation. Most language centers offer evening classes on weekdays in addition to weekend classes.

Typical TEFL wages in Vietnam for certified English teachers range from US $1000-$1500/month. Benefits vary greatly from school to school. (Salaries are always paid in dong and are usually paid at the end of the month.) Quite often, if a teacher stays for one year, the school will pay for the airfare to another destination or will give a bonus. As you would expect, the larger cities have higher living costs, but pay rates are also higher. Local living expenses are low: about US$500-700/month. Certified English language teachers can earn enough to live very comfortably and still save at least several hundred dollars a month.
