Hello everyone,
                Could I ask some questions please initially.
    What months are best to try to obtain teaching work in Saigon.?
  I am qualified,and have experience in teaching primary school
   age children. I find that this age group have more fun.
    I have all the required papers.
      Also I need initially somewhere to live.
     Any preference in districts? I will be travelling alone.
         Hope someone can help me.     Kind Regards
                                               Terry K

Any time is good, the fall terms have started.

Bring ALL your credentials, papers really impress them. Also your driving licence.

You can stay in an economy hotel, find a placement, then choose a suitable place based upon which school you work at.

International schools are spread all around the city.

Check your PM - I have sent you a list of schools.

Hope that you'll soon be enlightened.

I invite you to post an advert in the section Jobs in HCMC,  who knows, it may help.;)

Hi,

If you look for a place, most of expatriates are in district 2 and 7. [moderated]

NEVER select accommodation until AFTER you arrive and have located a job. Transit here is poor.
