Can you privately tutor in HK without a work visa?

should be "could have, would have, should have" as it is
could've, should've, would've

sorry, one of my pet peeves....

I know, Carang. Seems to be a British thing - maybe because of the ease with which they are apt to mumble the " 've" into an "uff", "ov", or "of" (take your pick).

again, sorry... that along with "irregardless" and "unthaw" just drive me around the bend!

i don't usually make a habit of correcting english on here, especially as i rarely proofread my own posts...

Good luck with the visa, buddy! But (to take a leaf out of PDLM's book, esp. in TEFL and would-be-tutor context), do take a look at this: Could of, should of, would of, will of... .

Thanks! What is that link too though, my ad blocker doesn't like it.

even with a work visa, it is illegal to tutor part-time on the side as your visa is tied to your employer.

Looks like i'll be marrying my girlfriend before I tutor then.

Not your ad blocker but my pasting was a bit off. Sorry! Here - try again; it's worth a read: Could of, should of, would of “Language Rules!”

Aha! That's the way!
