Good afternoon po, I'm a 1st year BSPT student po and I also have an older sister, a 3rd year BSPT student and she is looking for a Filipino PT working outside the country. I was wondering if she could take the opportunity of having you in an interview with her po for academic purposes. Thank you!
Of course! She can contact me via email or instagram @drgrazelle
Thank you so much for sharing.More power to your channel.
Hi, thank you for the video 💗 Where or in which university did you take the 1 semester of additional credits po? And how much did it cost you po? Thank you.
I took the extra classes at my local university in CDO. I remember some of my friends said they got theirs online. But I forgot the name of that school
Thank you for this insight. Im a PT🇵🇭 currently in the process under an agency. They will shoulder nearly everything for the entire process with a 4yrs contract however the salary when I get to the US would range from 25-34USD or lets just say $30 per hr once I get there. If you don’t mind me asking what’s your opinion regarding this salary is this too low, avg, or just okay to settle with until contract’s over since I don’t have any experience regarding the wages in US specifically new york. Thank you.
4-yr contract? Did your agency pay for your DPT? My salary was in that same range during my 2.5-yr contract but I’ve never lived in NY. It was enough for me and my husband. Our first apartment was a studio $1000, adding car payments, insurance and other bills, we could only save $200-300/month. My husband had H4 visa at the time so he was not allowed to work. That was kinda scary for me. Although we had enough money, I felt like I couldn’t cover emergency expenses if something happens. I wished I knew better and loaned a 2nd hand car instead of a new one. After my first 3 months there, we moved to a cheaper apartment $500/mo. Then we were able to have an emergency fund and afford to start investing for retirement. I don’t know what expenses are like in NY, but I’m sure they’re pretty high. But I have friends who live there and they seem to do okay.
@@drgrazelle Thank you so much!! I really appreciate this. Regards to DPT they will be paying for it but I have to pay it (tuition) back once I get deployed. Thankss again for this insight Doc it’s an eye opener. Wishing more blessings to you guys out there!🤍
Whats the approximate amount did you pay the agency po?
I never paid the agency anything. But I did pay for some of the documents they required from me, my TOEFL and my US tourist visa interview so I can sit for the NPTE in Florida.
Doc do u suggest Grandison? Thanks.
I’ve heard of them but I don’t have much info on them. I only applied to Avant 🙃
