    Thanks for letting us see what a day is like while you work. Yes, naps can make a very positive impact on your productivity. One job that I had for 5 years, I took a 45-minute nap during lunch every day and that made the second half of the day so much better! Keep up the good work!

It is cheaper to hire illegal tourist 😂 than giving a visa and work permit . In Vietnam they don't care about qualifications.

      It is fun in Facebook they say that payment is 1300 USD for an European, for a Filipinos 700 ,800. For an African 1000 but they don't prefer Africans in most of cases. At the end if you don't get the 100 hours you can't get 1300 😂 . Africans and Russians think they can come in Vietnam and get a salary like that but it's not that easy. Finding a school that respects teachers is extremely difficult. Now if you are from USA or UK they respect you more .

    Hi!! Thank you so much for your videos! I have a question. Don't if you might know the answer but here it goes. I'm from Spain but I currently live in the Dominican Republic. I've been here for several years now. I went to school here and got my bachelor's degree from one of the local colleges (I'm a doctor). But I want a career change I want to go to Vietnam to work as an English teacher. I have all the required documents (bachelor's degree, TEFL certification, English proficiency certification, local policy check, photos...). Unfortunately, there is no Vietnamese embassy here. So, If I get my documents legalized here with the local authorities and then travel to Vietnam with them already legalized by my local government. For work permit purposes, I can, after landing a job, get them consular legalized in Vietnam, right?

    • @esiriscorner
      @esiriscorner  Před rokem +1

      Let's be honest. In Vietnam there are a lot of scams specially for Africans. An African girl told me she was going to pay 1500 USD 😂 to a school. I told her don't do it. Also I just live near the city and they don't want black, Filipinos, Indians. I was promised 1500 USD per month and I got 600 to 700 USD 😂. I can't just change the company easily. Maybe this lady was lucky, but in Vietnam the competition in the city is big. Also you will see a lot of Indians or Africans like angry because when more Foreigners are coming less job and school want to pay less money. Luckily I am the only Foreigner in my zone and I can get part-time jobs near my region. And luckily I look like a white person that's why they like me. Also I saw a lot of Africans working for Apax, and the accent is too strong.

You will have to live with your money from your country. I think you will need 20.000 USD to study and come and the following year just 5000 USD. You can't work with a student visa, if your University discovers and you don't have attendance the following year you don't receive a Visa. They know a lot of people are trying to get the visa as an excuse to work illegally that's why you would need 20.000 ( that would include your tuition, airplane, visas, legalization, food, everything) I also wanted to study but I don't have the time, I just make 13 USD 😂 per hour, the first 2 or 3 months just made little money because not a lot of hours. When I do the conversion is not even 13 😂 this month for the first time 57 hours. I was promised 1300 USD 😂 but being honest I am receiving a lot of stress and I feel better not working so many hours in the same environment with the same children. I am the only Foreigner in my town so my boss is using me for another Schools. The salary would be for me 13 USD 😂 but probably my boss is receiving more be because I have to go by motorbike 14 minutes and it's dangerous. For the institutes it is easier borrow teachers because hiring a foreigner is extremely difficult Nowdays. To get my work permit for than 3 months waiting and I didn't know if I was going to stay in Vietnam. So some Africans would be lucky to come in Vietnam. But not all. The competition is big and a lot of scammers.
