When You Arrive in Vietnam

As an expert in organizing cultural programs in Vietnam, TTV's TEFL internship will give you the opportunity to spend an extended length of time living and working in Vietnam, while also racking up those hours of real teaching experience. Here's what you get:

• A reputable internship setup for you 5 months teaching in Vietnam and over 200 hours of practical teaching experience

This allowance will be prorated (e.g. if you were to work half a month, for example, you'll receive half a month's allowance). It's important to note that the cost of living in Vietnam is considerably lower than that in Western parts of the world - a bottle of mineral water can cost less than 10,000 Dong

Important Visa Information:
