|
Hey all-
My wife and I are looking to work in a summer camp in Taiwan beginning May-June. We each have over two years experience, myself with a BA and her with a college diploma. Could any of the old pro's shed some light on how it works in Taiwan? Any recommendations? In general, paid airfare?
Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks- |

Summer vacation does not begin for local schools in Taiwan until July 1. Maybe some international schools get out earlier. Camps in Taiwan are July and August. |

Do you have any offers on the table, currently? Your main issues are going to be the short duration fo these camps, along with the costs involved of coming here. Simply put, there likely will not be enough money to be earned to make it worth your while. Do it if it is something you want to do for the experience of it alone. But expect to go home barely breaking even. |

You might apply to Disney in China. They are offering to pay your flight even for just a two month summer contract. The advertise on Dave's ESL Cafe. |

So long as you are prepared to wear a big eared costume and say 'Welcome to Disney' a billion times a day in a falsetto Mickey voice...  |
