50 years ago, my grandfather taught me this "Biết một chữ đáng ngàn vàng Thà không danh phận, cũng nhàn tấm thân" This is why investing in education is one of the most lucrative businesses in Vietnam.
Can't wait to see you in Vietnam! I am now setting my life up for the move. You have really inspired me to make the leap into this new chapter of my life.
There are swathes of private language centers in Vietnam still hiring those who don't hold a bachelors. And it's still possible to attain a work permit, providing you're willing to pay the 'under the table' fees to the department of labor. I know this new decree came out roughly two months ago stating that ESL teachers need to have a BA. But there's a lot of confusion as to what has actually changed. Prior to the decree it was already law that those teaching had to have a BA, yet there were (and still are) huge numbers of people teaching in Vietnam without a degree.

Will happily watch this a bit later, Alex. But as things are ever changing, might it be better titled, "Teaching English In Vietnam (as of Jan. 2021) Q&A" ? As always, keep up the good work!
Wow awesome information Alex thank you so much, u hv really inspired me to move that direction. Tho I wonder how easy it going to be for me to process everything due to corona procedures. Prayers
Stevie I have a B.A. These are the questions the squad is asking Do You guarantee a placement ? 1400-1800 USD a month FR ? Can you give placements in Thailand ? 😍
I Got ATESOL Online, through coursera to be exact. The agency ask me to legalize the TESOL, but my country wouldn't legalize it since the TESOL is provided by a universtity in the US. How can I manage solving this please?
Got an offer from an ALT dispatch, seems legit, I just hope it's like you said with the office hours. On the fence though, coming from Japan where everything is orderly and "safe," to what seems to be the chaos of SE Asia. Thanks for the info! I'll definitely be buying a motorcycle - just hope it doesn't get stolen! Cheers
Hi Alex, Mentioning about the Tax deduction from salary, Will the tax deduction be put back to Native country hwere teacher came from (America, Canada, Eangland, ect) ?. Or the tax deduction will be going into Vietnam tax revenue ?. Please and Thank you.
Dude, I'm just being a touch superficial but letting your beard grow out just a bit like that and letting your hair grow a few more inches and voila! Looks really great! Oh and hey, if you don't mind me asking, how do you manage your healthcare in Vietnam? Thanks!
I have a teaching license in the us and a bachelors degree, I am also an ell site coordinator at my school. Do I need a tefl certification? Is it helpful to have that as well? Love your videos. Thanks!
I don't understand - I thought all you needed was a TEFL - but you're saying I need a Bachelors Degree as well? Being Australian - I completed High School (Year 12) wouldn't this be enough along with getting the TEFL?
No I believe, some years ago when I took an IELTS exam, I was trained by a very old English teacher from a big & famous company called IDP. IMO Canadian accent is the best.
Hi. I have a position in Vietnam and will be moving in late March. I previously taught in China. Near the end of this video you mention that if my TEFL is from a UK company, it will need to be authenticated in the UK. This was definitely the case when getting my China authentications. However, I think the Vietnamese embassy in the US is doing me a favor and authenticating it here in the US. I just received my FedEx notification that my package has been shipped back to me from the embassy. I will receive it by Monday and hopefully they authenticated all 3 docs, including the UK TEFL. I had asked the embassy rep this very question and he told me to send him the UK TEFL and he would see what he could do. He never contacted me to say he could not do it, so my fingers are crossed.
Ninja Teacher, Important Question, how safe are the pharmacies there? I heard rumor of a lot of counterfeits. I have high blood pressure and I'd be nervous about getting my proper meds. Do you have any suggestions? Any respected pharmacies with legit medication? Thank you
Ive got a really honest question. I know theres a lot or predjudice in south east/ east asia when it vomes to the hiring process. As a coloured teacher, is vietnam somehwere where im going to struggle
My friend from Saigon she said black people although they are qualified they have really difficult. Specially now all the people in Africa and also Muslims heard about Vietnam and want to go desperately to work. I see in Facebook a lot of Africans and Muslims my friend doesn't like. She studied in Japan and traveled around the world. Imagine ordinary vietnamese people .
I trade stocks for income but have been using teaching to keep my visa in Korea. Is there a minimum amount of work hours required to maintain a visa in Vietnam?
There isn't, no. Most schools will typically want you to teach a minimum number of hours if they're going to sponsor your work permit though. But that's likely to be less than Korea.
How about a video comparing all the major centers in terms of required hours, visas, etc. Example: VUS Minimum hours: 8 average per week, available for 14 Minimum guaranteed for full-time: 20 per week Work permit: yes (part-time and full-time) TRC: yes (part-time and full-time) Lesson planning/prep: minimal to moderate ILA, APEX, IELTS Fighter, Yola, Apollo...? Also enjoying the food/day in the life vlogs. Keep up the good work.
For Indians, the requirements are the same. 1. You have a bachelor degree ( any major) 2. Tesol or Tefli will be accepted. If you do not have a strong accent you will have more chances in smaller cities. You can not compete with native speakers in big cities.
Hi Alex. Thanks for all you do - it is truly appreciated. Since the lockdown you are spending most of your time now in Danang and from your videos we can see that it is awesome. Have you given any serious thought to opening a Ninja Teaching outpost in Danang ?? It would be really cool - especially after all these months of sharing with us this great Danang life. I think that your business would really take off if you had a Danang option to Ninja Teaching. Would you agree?
Thank you for the informative video. Both my husband and I were born in Vietnam. We came to the states when we were kids. We have two young kids under 10 now. If I choose to go through the teaching route, will it be difficult for our family to move and reside in Vietnam if only one of us intend to teach? Thank you ind advance!
Hi Alex, I don't have a CELTA but have a BA degree and a 188 hr TEFL speaker and I'm a UK native. I'm mostly looking to get started in teaching and gain some experience and am keen to work with one of the chain schools you mention in your videos. Is this feasible?
i have a question, even if it would be very difficult to get a job with TFEL certificate alone. is it still valuable when putting it on your resume when applying for none-teaching jobs?
By "native" English speaker do you mean you have to be white or can you be from another ethnic background but have a Canadian or US accent because you've lived in those countries for most or all of your life?
@@ninja.teacher Thank you. So, given that I have a Canadian passport and am a graduate of a Canadian university, have a TESL certificate and speak English fluently with a North American accent what are my odds of getting a job teaching English online or at a private school in Vietnam?
Hopefully you liked Teaching English for Vietnamese Kids How they're your student speaking English i hopefully some day to Come see You for student English From Da Nang Vietnam ok Ninja Teacher thank you..
Quick question: I do possess a bachelors degree and am a native English speaker but I don’t have a TEFL/TESOL or Celta. Do I absolutely have to possess one of these to teach in Vietnam? Thanks for your time and great video!
Yup, it's a requirement of the Vietnamese government to have a form of teaching certification in addition to a bachelors degree in order to obtain a work permit and teach legally in Vietnam.
Still expensive and difficult but looking promising for the future. You can get in touch with our team and we’ll send you the latest updates. www.ninjateacher.com
Hey Alex , thank you for the informative video. What are the chances of securing a good job for someone who has a PhD in English Linguistics but is not a native speaker ?
Thank you Alex , I have been following you in your journey ever since you moved to SE Asia and I am appreciate the hard work you have been putting in. If ever I decide to move there , it will be my pleasure to invite you over for coffee.
@@drbiz3333 my previous Academic Manager has the same qualification and she is non native. A lot of non native English teachers with high qualifications could secure a more stable job than native speakers without a degree. I think it also depends whether you are aiming to work in Hanoi or Saigon.
Hi Ninja Teacher, most of your responses represent South of Vietnam. I think it would also be nice if you could introduce North of Vietnam since your titles indicate Vietnam in general.
Question 🙋🏾♀️: I’m finishing up my MSED in TESOL (w/a US teaching license) and I already got my 120+ hour TEFL certificate. Do schools in Vietnam 🇻🇳 hire NQTs? Thank you for your reply 😌
Hello sir. I am from Pakistan. Definitely m not a native English speaker. I did masters in English literature and linguistics and I have also done Bachelor in Education(B.Ed). I have 8 years teaching experience in different schools as teacher of English. I am 37 years old. I am coming to Thailand to apply for teaching job. What do u say about Vietnam? Can I apply in Vietnam? Do I have a chance a little bit?
This was really informative. Thanks. You were talking about getting the certification authenticated, basically this sounds like getting it apostilled. Do you other documents such as Bachelor's or Master's degrees need to go through the same process?
@@ninja.teacher Thank you so much! I just submitted an inquiry through your contact form. I look forward to knowing how to send my CV and other materials to you for future possibilities. Cheers!
Hi @Ninja Teacher, I have a question! I want to improve my nerves when public speaking in front of people, and I also would like to try and get into teaching which could be a good way to tackle that fear. If I was to take an internship to Vietnam and work in a school, would I get support with my social anxiety and public speaking fear in any way, and would the schools help me out to try and ease me in? I am really trying to better myself and beat that fear, it stops me from doing so much. Thanks!
Basically if you’re Asian American your chance of getting hire is slim to none. 🤷♀️ that’s my guess knowing how close minded Vietnamese are. I have never visit Vietnam because I’m scare of food poisoning, robbery, high chance of traffic accident, doctors with no degree🤯 am I terrible …oh and I heard communist workers in airport, cops, etc will give Viet Kieu (Vietnamese American) a hard time and will try their best to put you in jail etc etc At least they worship white people over there tho you guys are being treated like God y’all really have the best of both world.
50 years ago, my grandfather taught me this
"Biết một chữ đáng ngàn vàng

Alex,
Really admire / like the way your posting is always Outdoor view composing !
There are swathes of private language centers in Vietnam still hiring those who don't hold a bachelors. And it's still possible to attain a work permit, providing you're willing to pay the 'under the table' fees to the department of labor. I know this new decree came out roughly two months ago stating that ESL teachers need to have a BA. But there's a lot of confusion as to what has actually changed.

Hey Alex. Interesting accent. Especially when you say “here.” Where are you from?
Hi Alex.
What's the max-age limit to teach in Vietnam? Thanks
The retirement age in Vietnam is 60 for men and 55 for women so it may be challenging to secure employment and a work permit if you're above this age.
@@ninja.teacher Thanks. I'm not that old then. Some companies don't want teachers over 47 but I guess that depends on each company

For Indians, the requirements are the same.

2. Tesol or Tefli will be accepted.
If you do not have a strong accent you will have more chances in smaller cities. You can not compete with native speakers in big cities.
Also c1 and 3 years of experience certificate.
Great Chanel, seems to be cloudy in most of your videos

1400 to 1800 is for the native or for the non native?
i have a question, even if it would be very difficult to get a job with TFEL certificate alone. is it still valuable when putting it on your resume when applying for none-teaching jobs?
It depends on the job but if it's anything that involves some kind of training or communication role it could be useful to have on your resume.
So you can get a job teaching if you are a native speaker and are TEFOL certified?
By "native" English speaker do you mean you have to be white or can you be from another ethnic background but have a Canadian or US accent because you've lived in those countries for most or all of your life?
Based on passport.

I want to improve my nerves when public speaking in front of people, and I also would like to try and get into teaching which could be a good way to tackle that fear. If I was to take an internship to Vietnam and work in a school, would I get support with my social anxiety and public speaking fear in any way, and would the schools help me out to try and ease me in? I am really trying to better myself and beat that fear, it stops me from doing so much. Thanks!
Also, can we chooses the location? I would love to work for a school in Ha Noi!
That’s lowballing! Being a server in America is avg 1.3k-1.6k/week! So being a English teacher in Vietnam is surely more! Base on my knowledge
do you speak Vietnamese
Only a little.
Wait for what?
I will never be better
Haha, it's true. I don't like teaching adults. They don't listen! Play on their phone, etc
Are they forcing vaccines on teachers there like they are trying to in Thailand?
Hey boet. ❤
Basically if you’re Asian American your chance of getting hire is slim to none. 🤷♀️ that’s my guess knowing how close minded Vietnamese are.
I have never visit Vietnam because I’m scare of food poisoning, robbery, high chance of traffic accident, doctors with no degree🤯 am I terrible …oh and I heard communist workers in airport, cops, etc will give Viet Kieu (Vietnamese American) a hard time and will try their best to put you in jail etc etc
At least they worship white people over there tho you guys are being treated like God y’all really have the best of both world.
South African!!!

7:00 didn’t age well.
Very useful. Should have done it back when you didn't need a degree. Oh well. Still enjoy seeing young people getting out there and having a crack.
