Vietnam is the cheapest country because that's how economy works. Hard working Vietnamese = rapid industrialization= Abundance of goods = cheap price = expanding domestic consumer market

Being in Vietnam is not just about money. Everything is 1/4th cheaper than the USA. So, you can't compare the two salaries.

Very happy to have watched this episode because it reaffirms my decision to move to Vietnam and take the course. It'd be wonderful to speak with Chris when i'm over there because his teaching style and optimism for teaching is exciting to see.

Yeah... :)

WOW !!! thats a lot :-)))))))

You guys should teach the Vietnamese not to litter indiscriminately.

What a lovely guy, I bet his students and their parents adore him. He gives western expat English teachers a good name. I wish there were more like him..

Would love to see this guy's actual budget and salary numbers. The average monthly salary for a teacher would be around 40Million vnd ($1,500) if you're lucky. So this guy is either paying rent, food, etc. all from $500 a month, or is working two jobs here.

Looks like a great apartment for the price. Can I get more information on it?

20:56 Good ratio: 27,000 dollars a month?!?! That must be a mistake.

Thanks guys 👍

Wats theName of the Hotel. Thanks!

Ninja Teacher alumni here. I just arrived back home in the US after 6 years in Vietnam. This is no joke. Everything this guy said is true. I have been to every part of Vietnam North, Central, and South. I visited Thailand 4 times. I've been to Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket. Teaching in Vietnam was amazing and the people are so incredibly smart and giving. I lived in a flat on the top floor of a 30 story High Rise building with a beautiful view of Ha Long Bay. Basically, I lived like a king. The cost of living was so reasonable. For the first time in my life, I lived my dreams and I was also able to bank 1000 dollars a month. I'm back in America now with a Vietnamese wife and her son Khoi. Now I get to watch them realize their dreams here in America. They joy I see in their faces as they learn the culture here makes me feel that my whole time in Vietnam was worth it. I started with Ninja Teacher in 2018 and found that there were no catches. Everything Alex said was true and I will forever be grateful to him for offering a true no-nonsense course that set me on an amazing path to success. Cheers!

If learns about Bit coin and saves in that he'll be able to retire in ten years if he's putting away a grand every month. Good lad!!

I like the words: chill and chaos when he desprite about ho chi minh .

I just need to have a friend from this country but how, i don't know. I am Ugandan married and a father. Just need someone from this country for tourism and business purposes. In case your interested, be a genuine person all sexes are allowed.

Any beaches or good rivers,lakes

I'll be your friend.

Does having a full bike licence at home still enable you just to take the practical and receive a VN bike licence, if so what would be the expiry is it tied to your visa or your home licence

I taught English in Russia for eleven years. The problem for me was not the salary (it was good), but poor mental health from being isolated for too long, not by choice, you understand. The people there were not exactly hospitable, unlike in MEXICO , where they were marvelous. My advice to any prospective teachers would be, go where you will be happy and valued. That means, for the vast majority, somewhere where you will meet and make friends quickly. Russia is the worst place for this.

Love your perception of it!! Inspired

Thank you for the info. Which district in Saigon is your preferred district to live in?

How do I go about finding a job in Vietnam if I’m currently outside of Asia?

I am an Indian. How can I live in Vietnam ? I came 3 times earlier there

Absolutely loved your video on how you spent Tet 2023 in Vietnam! Your insights into the traditions and celebrations really brought the holiday to life. It was fascinating to see how families come together and the vibrant atmosphere of the festivities. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful experience!

was just there last week

Hello you didn’t drop the realtor

Hello am moving to moving to Vietnam soon how can I get an apartment help

Hi Alex, I am studying with TEFL Academy, based in NZ. I guess this is a competitor to you, right? I am committed to getting to Vietnam to teach and help wonderful People there improve their futures.

Great video breaking down everything and very specific! Learnt alot and would love to move back to vn to live and retire!

A night out ? 15-20 beers for us normal folk. And who starts at night? Its an all day think people. 😀

WTF ? Being vastly different from one another, America compared to Vietnam has a lot of discrepancies, good and bad, between the two. No country is perfect and one must take into account its unique history, government, and culture.

Oh yeah near district 9 right

This is exactly what I been looking for !!! 🥳 November will be crazy !! This will be my favorite spot

How do I apply for a teacher job in Vietnam? I’m an Indian working in the UAE as an early years teacher.

WOW! A fully furnished 2 bed, 2 bath apartment with a balcony is under $400/month, including all utilities and fees. UNBELIEVABLE!

Thank you for this video, I am very keen to do ESL teaching in either Vietnam, China, or Japan (Vietnam sounds the best atm). I am still only in school, but I'm looking into doing college (university) before travelling and trying to enter this kind of position. Watching these videos make me even more excited and I hope Ninja teacher is still in action by time I can come over ☺️🙌

Vietnam would be a great place to retire IF… they had a retirement visa. They don’t. 90 days in and then you have to do a border run because they don’t want foreigners staying in country to retire. Marriage could be one way to stay.

Hey man! There is a possibility of me going to teach French in Hanoi next year in an international school. I'm currently living in Colombia with my girlfriend. She is a learning support teacher at the same school as me. She has a Bachelors degree in Psychology and a Masters in Education, speaks Spanish and English. Would she need to do the TEFL to find a job teaching English, even with experience teaching in an international school in Bogota? Thanks!
