Is it time to go home?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

there is work for Teachers in Myanmar BUT Not teachers without qualifications and outside of Yangon, no english language schools.

if ur going to teach there, you need a "REAL" degree and experience and they check, but pay is usually over $2,500/month ++
nothing for trapper there

I know of at least one guy working there without a degree, and earning good money.

Like anywhere, it depends on the admin and how they check.

You missed it.

Let's try again. You wrote:
"vietnamese it ok to actually but I been there 5times."

As an English teacher, you should have written:
"Vietnamese it be ok two. But, ashley I's been their 5 times."

"there is work for Teachers in Myanmar BUT Not teachers without qualifications and outside of Yangon, no english language schools."



There are plenty of English teaching jobs outside of Yangon, not sure why you would say there aren't any. The problem with most teaching jobs there though are the hours, I have a friend teaching there that works upwards of 60 hours a week once you figure in all the extras required by the schools. Plays, parent meetings, etc.

i say that cause in all my travels throughout the country over my past 6 trips have seen no english language schools outside Yangon.
the teachers i do know, ( in Yangon and Mandalay) teach at international schools and work 8-4...
