I realise that along with almost every other question asked on this forum, you've already been asked a million times. So apologies yet again from yet another newbie!!

If in the contract it specifically states that you are not allowed to do any private teaching/lessons. How stringent is this? I will be struggling on the basic wage (uk repayments etc), so will have to make other plans - quickly!!!

Gracias! Embarassed

I bumped some other older threads for you to read. I hit the search button and typed in "privates" and looked only in Job related forums. Good luck to you.

You probably don't want to advertise that you plan on doing privates. It's illegal, like selling drugs and adultery.

It's illegal because immigration says so, not just your employer. It is possible to teach at multiple hogwans, if you get permission from your original employer. Some people teach kindy in the monring at one and then elementary in the afternoon/evening at another place.

Yes, you can do it if your employer agrees.....AND you go to immigration and get another work address endorsed on the back of your ARC. Don't let anyone tell you different.

Ah sorry... I forgot to copy ksonnen's quote, "It is possible to teach at multiple hogwans, if you get permission from your original employer."
The whole post should have read...

My bad.
