What did you end up doing? Did you take the job or not? If so, how is it going?

@prufrockwakes

Any reasons why you turned down their offer?

Were the "occassional Saturdays" really every other Saturday, etc?

Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

An unqualified teacher in HK will end up working every Saturday and earn less than HK$20k per month...in a city that is ranked as one of the most expensive in the world.

Get your teacher's qual. before thinking of HK.

p.s. - there are loads of permanent residents who work as tutors part-time, so that might not be an option.

No quals? No good jobs in HK. Cool
