English Teaching Job in PP
I've been offered a job to teach English at Westview Cambodian International School which I'm considering.
I have a Psychology degree and CELTA certificate. The school is offering 1800 USD after tax.
Is this a liveable salary for PP? I'm not too bothered about saving money, we'd like to enjoy our time there and focus on saving money at future jobs in VN. That being said, with my qualifications would it be possible to find a higher paying job?
My partner is a teacher too and will look for work there - she's a non native speaker, white, 25 and speaks with a British accent. She has an English Teaching degree and CELTA - will she be able to find work?

2. Possibly. Try ACE.
3. Yes
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

Re: English Teaching Job in PP
I've never heard of "Westview International School". I think you could find something much better with your qualifications.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Have you read some of the posts here, you could put your degree to good use by the means of counseling helping people suffering from addiction and other behavioral disorders by offering treatment and advice, it would probably be more beneficial in Kampot and Phnom Penh. Where there seems to be anger issues in the bars, knocking down defenceless women and ex pie salesmen wanting to fight with anyone.
Always "hope" but never "expect".

I am in no way qualified to offer such services. I hold a BSc, not a Masters.AndyKK wrote: ↑Thu Mar 17, 2022 10:51 pm Have you read some of the posts here, you could put your degree to good use by the means of counseling helping people suffering from addiction and other behavioral disorders by offering treatment and advice, it would probably be more beneficial in Kampot and Phnom Penh.

You don't mention which countries you've previously taught in.
Hopefully, you're aware that teaching jobs in Southeast Asia are more then just "x amount of dollars after tax", i.e. nightmares of a serious degree are also possible at many if not most "$¢hoo£$". Do your due diligence before signing up for anything before arriving.
Regarding your partner, of course she can find teaching work. Contacting some schools as you have done is always a good first step.

I may be going to hell in a bucket,
but at least I'm enjoying the ride.
