I’d like to say taiwanese treat foreigners better, I’m teaching in cram school now, In our school Taiwanese teacher work from the school open until it close but the foreigners work only when they have classes, but the salary is higher than Taiwanese, just the simple truth foreigners are just more valuable than Taiwanese here in Taiwan! Haha ! Even that’s true but really glad to see you guys appreciate this little island country and making video about the beauty of 🇹🇼 ! Even talk a lot of controversial topic🤭I think you deserve more than that! Amazing video, the quality of the video is gettin’ higher n higher! I love u too😂 The sunset is breathtaking !!!

Oh god.. I've tripped up so many times ordering food in Taipei. I once ended up eating a cold curry cutlet sandwich at 7-11, because, even though I knew what the phrase "加熱嗎?" (heat it up?) meant at the time, my brain just couldn't process it in the heat of the moment and I just ended up shaking my head out of confusion. Basically, learning another language frequently makes you feel like a complete idiot. One whose biggest fear is asking a question and not being able to understand the answer. All I can do is continue to get better, though. I dream of the day when that fear starts to go away. One awesome thing about Taiwan, though is that everyone is super friendly and will usually jump at the chance to help if they're able to.

I can see that both Prozzie and Wes are good English teachers. Low average salary is a key issue in Taiwan indeed, unfortunately ,government failed to solve this problem in past 20 years. The main reason is that a lot of Taiwanese factories and companies moved to China since 2000. Owing to the fact that 85% of Taiwanese have their own house, otherwise it will be more difficult for young people age bet 20-40 to make a living in Taiwan. The living cost is getting higher in recent years and young people have nothing left with their saving. I do hope that poor salary problem can be solved by new 2020 president to save these young generation in Taiwan.

I heard some things from my sister in law who works in taiwan that would make people in the west cringe. Things like the salary shown is the maximum you can do in a year because the employer will try to deduce things from that salary. You get penalized for taking vacation because during that time your productivity went down so they give you a bad review and reduce your salary. Same thing if you want to take vacation day other than when they allow it.

Sounds a lot like Japan, overtime is mentioned but rarely paid for. Most public school teachers work from 7 am to 9 pm, even when they are supposed to work 8 hrs by law. It's like when you get hired you are not at a fixed position, yet you are doing cleaning, yardwork, whatever needs to be done. It goes all throughout all companies. Nobody says my kid has soccer practice, its 5, I can't do overtime today, you go home when the boss or manager goes home.

The universities in Taiwan offer more than 200000 vacancies for the senior high school graduates to study every year currently but the number of students graduated from senior high schools each year are even less than that number due to the sharp falling population of children. That means everyone has the opportunity to study in a university. When everyone gets a degree easily, the low salary for a college graduate becomes normal while their parents may earn 100000 NTD every month working as the owner of a food stall without any degree. They college graduates may work as an English-teaching assistant from morning till late in the night earning about 30000 NTD a month while the westerners teach English without extra work and generally earn double of their local colleagues.

Getting lost was easier back then, no phone google maps to help! Even this past time I went there for 10 days (mostly in Taichung) and people were still very helpful in many ways. I think once I finish up my degree, I will be looking to move there long term. Any suggestions as to where would be a good place to settle down?

Watching your videos in China and in Taiwan, although it is obvious that you do like to complain about things in life, but one thing for sure, in China you were complaining angrily and sadly, but in Taiwan, you are complaining enjoyably and happily, sometimes. It seems you have a better life in Taiwan.

Seeing Wes putting his arm around Prozzie reminded me of how Cmilk was just as close to him. I also thought of the movie The Talented MrRipley.

The point is as a foreign English teacher in Taiwan , you don’t have to deal with the parents or cheak kid’s homework bla bla bla. specially some of the parents are horrible. But if you are a Taiwanese English teacher you have to teach kids but also you have to deal with all the kid’s parents. Which I think is super unfair because Taiwanese English teacher have to do more than foreign English teacher but they get Pay less.

This looks like a movie 🎥 “ The Talented Mr.Ripley” Prozzie is Tom Ripley and Wes is Dickie Greenleaf. Let’s see how this movie will end up? Will they be lovers or will they end up killing each other like in the movie The Talented Mr.Ripley ???

How do salaries of foreign English teachers compare to local engineers? Well, that would depend on a couple things. If you're a software engineer working for multinational companies such as Google or FB in Taiwan, then I don't think the salaries of foreign English teachers come close to what this group of engineers make. I think the foreign KZbinr Francois (Yuan Yuan), who works as an engineer at Yahoo, probably has a bigger paycheck than foreign English teachers in Taiwan. Engineers who work in semiconductor fabs in Hsinchu Science Park in companies such as TSMC probably have bigger paycheck as well. So engineers working at bigger, well-known, especially multinational, companies would make more than English teachers in Taiwan, because most of them need and use English as part of their jobs in addition to having knowledge and experience from their respective engineering professions. Engineers working at smaller, local and less well-known companies could make about the same or a bit less than foreigners who teach English. But if you gain more experience and move into leadership role, the salaries may rise beyond that of a typical salaries of English teachers from overseas. But do English teachers have more time and less job-related stress, compared to engineers? Yes, I am confident that's very much the case.

I love your content!!! Sorry if you already covered this before, but, do you need more than a TEFL certificate to teach to kids who are in 1st to 12th grade? Most TESOL and TEFL programs I have seen just mention being qualified to teach adults. Also, if one wanted to teach adults specifically, would it be hard to find a job in Taiwan?

I'm curious to know what the relationship is between native Taiwanese and mainland Chinese. Is there a sense of rivalry or even superiority. To me it seems like Taiwan is much more civilized and China is more backwards. Also given the history its interesting to learn how the two cultures developed

0:01 Watch out, there's a baby tribble on your shoulder. Don't audio-feed it. Did you two enjoy the long walk on the beach? 😁 BTW, why not hold the camera in your right hand when Wes is on your left? That would push him less into the background. That's probably why he got his hand on your shoulder. He doesn't want to 'fall off the stage'. That he's significantly smaller than you doesn't help either. You're running a real Batman-and-Robin scheme there. 😉 As for the 'society vibe and virtue', I tend to look at things from the biggest-possible-picture point. Severely suck the money out of Taiwan and then get to know how people really are. Because the karmic connections go very far, all the way to the root, and societies like Taiwan *could* be a kind of comfort zone bought with a dormant downside. This is a bit related to that saying: "Tell me who you are socializing with and I tell you who you are." - Who did Taiwan 'socialize' with in order to build the wealth that allows them to not live like a 'failed state'? This 'web' is bigger than many realize. 9:31 Is KZbin seriously still allowing the 10-minute thing to make a difference regarding ads?

我們台灣在過去70年是有所不同,但是在血液中我們是台灣人也是中國人.中國現在的暴發戶狀況是30年台灣的情況.我必須說的是他們需要時間去進步他的人文素養.這沒有辦法一促可及。但是大陸會走過來的.你現在遇到的台灣已經漸漸脫離黑社會收取保護費,路上人們亂丟東西.亂吐痰.講話三字經的年代。但是總有一天.台灣跟大陸距離會越來越接近的.
