1. What is the highest paying "language" school (minus the unis and internationals) in HCMC?

2. Do language schools in HCMC offer

a) housing/accom or
b) visa fees repaid

I've heard a lot of talk about teachers living in cheap hotels while working.

3. For those of you working under the table, is entering Vietnam on a tourist visa initially acceptable by your employer and will you be relatively at ease on this type of visa (if all parties agree to the commencement of "under the table" employment)?

4) Where is the cheaper place to fly to HCMC from?

a) Kuala Lumpur
b) Singapore
c) or other Malaysian hubs (like JB)?

And, finally on which airline?


Thank you, spank you

Not really.

Some, but it usually works out to be to your advantage to take care of everything yourself.

De Tham, Bui Vien, Co Bac are chosen by some and there are a few who chose to do that for quite a while. Others find themselves in the Ghetto or further afield.

If you can commit a couple of months in advance you can get really cheap tickets through Tiger Air out of Singapore.

www.tigerairways.com - one option.
