Hi guys.

Well I'm starting to feel burnt out on my current teaching job. It's been a good run, and I've appreciated what the school has done for me, but if I have to teach Next Stop 2 one more time (among many other books), I think I might implode My school has taken me off of kindergarten (which I enjoyed), and felt I was better suited for primary. Honestly, I am more experienced with this level, but it's becoming tiresome.

I initially declined an offer to join Nottingham's MA TESOL class for December, choosing to save it for a later date, but now I'm second guessing myself after returning to Vietnam (just came back from Canada).

I should have enough for tuition by this point, along with a little bit of extra cash (perhaps a couple grand). Might someone with my qualifications (or lack of) be able to get by on a 3 hour a day gig (I don't think the British Council is in the cards). I do lack a degree, but have plenty of experience, along with an IELTS teaching certificate and a TESOL certificate. Nottingham also provides a part-time work visa.

I don't plan on partying much at all (especially with the alcohol prices), but wouldn't mind having a semi-comfortable place, and being able to eat at local eateries.

Might this be affordable?
