Living the Dream, as an English Teacher in Cambodia
Very upbeat article on teaching English in South East Asia.
June 28, 2018
Earning $2,200 A Month Teaching English in Cambodia
By Stephen King
After losing his job and having difficulty finding work, James Donaldson was at a stage where he wanted to experience life in other countries.
“My savings were modest, so I knew I’d need to find a way to earn money to cover my travel expenses along the way,” says James. “Having read about work opportunities on various local expat and job websites I was confident about picking up work as an English teacher in Cambodia. I expected to grab some kind of lower level job, but landed a position at a school that pays a fair whack compared to the local cost of living.
“I’ve been here for over a year and earn enough to lead a good lifestyle—including travel around Asia—with cash left over to save a bit in the bank. Before moving here, I had no idea how simple it can be for a Westerner to find a teaching job right off the bat.”
You’ll find a wide range of teaching positions available in Cambodia but the capital city, Phnom Penh, is home to the most opportunities due to demand from local middle-class families who favour language institutions that employ Western expat teachers.
“Almost anyone can get a job as an English teacher in Cambodia, regardless of qualifications, experience or even fluency in the language,” says James. “There is a massive shortage of foreign teachers.”

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

It's shameful that any school in the world would employ a barely literate bogan. How long did you do that for, two weeks?Beerinthemorning wrote: ↑Sat Sep 29, 2018 7:17 am Khoa sarn rd bachelors degree a white face seems to work in japan.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
