Hi there.
My wife and I are moving to HK in mid-Feb 2006. I'm planning to teach English. I'm Australian and have a Bachelors Degree in humanities. I am also a native speaker of English and have been working in the UK for two years.
I have read through a lot of the useful information that people have put on this site. I have three questions:
What is an appropriate TEFL (two day, two day + 60 hr or two day + 120 hr) for teaching primary school or kindergarten?
Is it easy to line up work (and visa) before I arrive? It would be great to hear from people who have managed to do this, and the major strategies here.
How long would it take - roughly - to find work (assuming I did not line something up before I came)?
Any comments would be great.
Cheers.
Mat.
