About Me

My names Alexandra, I'm 23 and can't wait to see and experience the world. I'm a bubbly individual and love being with my great friends. I think im more the teacher/traveller as I want to work in several places and explore those countries. My main passion is to teach in Asia. I am not fussy where as I am interested in all of it. I am really looking forward to doing something so fullfilling like teaching English but to also have the time of my life along the way.

Help!!

I feel a bit lost as there seems to be so many options around me! I'd like to do between 2 and 5 months where I will be able to save half my wages to fund some travelling after finishing a teaching post. I really would like to do Thailand or Indonesia. I was looking into Interships but was wondering if you can save money from doing these?

Hi,


Are you looking to work in China?


Do you want to work with Kindergarten children?


Do you want a good Salary?


Do you want weekends off and two ½ days?


If you do, please contact me today. Our kindergarten needs teachers for the new semester starting September. We also have vacancies in our training centers. We are based in GuangZhou, Dongguan, and Foshan all in Guangdong Province, China.


Our school is called CIEO (Canadian International Education Organization)


If you want more details then please get in touch, If you know someone who might be interested then please forward this to them.


If you can’t start September don’t worry, you can still apply as we need teachers throughout the year!


All the best,


Robert


Hey, I think I'm in the exact same boat as you, I really fancy Thailand and was thinking about the internship but wonder if I could go without having to fork another grand for it... not sure yet.  From what I've seen you can't really save money with the intership but you can live pretty well off it.


Let me know if you find anything else out.

hey louise,


well im not there yet but im going in october. i cant really tell you what its going to be like but i can give you the information i have been given.


okay so we have to be in bangkok on the 23rd october where we will then be greeted by a company in thailand who look after us.


they take us to a hotel to chill out, then on the sunday we have a tour arounf the city etc


then we have an orientation week for 5 days where we o just outside of bangkok, and here we all meet the other interns and find out what school we will be teaching in.  we also find out more about the culture etc, so everything isnt so much as a shok to us.


after that we r taken to our schools. we will be due to teach on 1st november.


we have a appartment with basics , air conditioning, bed bla bla! not might not have a kitchen though as apparently this is normal in thailand as there are lots of street venders that sell very good fresh but cheap food.


we should alose be fairly close to other interns so can meet up at weekends etc. hopefully.


you will recieve 12,500 baht every month and then 16,000 at the end of the intern to say thank you for teaching them etc....


12,500 = 125 pounds.


1 thai meal is like £1 ...thats how cheap it is.


should finish roughly arouund the 31st march, but its best to book a flexi flight or a flight bout 2weeks later than that.


hmmm think thats everything ..... anything else you want to know?


 


you want to go in october? where are you from if you dont mind me asking?


the good thing about this is that they pay you too, and it should be enough to cover you food and meals out etc.


hope this helps
