To clarify, South Korea does provide payslips, although they are not given monthly. Instead, there is a dedicated website where you can access payslips for all your previous work periods. However, it's not common for people to track them regularly. In South Korea, South Africans are exempt from paying taxes for the first two years of living there. Many individuals come to Korea for two years, earn money, and then leave. Alternatively, you can choose to stay longer, as I have for five years, and I have only started paying taxes in the last three years, which amount to R1,250 per month. I believe this is reasonable. Moreover, after five years, our salaries do increase annually, and there are bonuses as well. It's not necessary to teach at just one school either. Currently, I teach at three schools, with varying weekly schedules. On top of these benefits, South Korea covers 50% of our medical aid costs and offers severance pay. Despite having no teaching experience in South Africa, I earn significantly more than a woman who has been working there for 30 years, and the cost of living in Korea is relatively inexpensive. In fact, I am able to save a substantial amount each month, sending home 1.5 million Korean won, which translates to R21,000, and comfortably living on the remainder of my salary. Hence, I still believe that South Korea offers favorable conditions. While I don't intend to make comparisons, I hope this clarifies any confusion. For more detailed information, feel free to visit my channel.

[@PalesaJonas]

To clarify further, South Korea offers even more benefits. They cover the cost of your flights, which means you don’t have to worry about purchasing air tickets when coming to or leaving the country. Additionally, as an English teacher in South Korea, you are provided with accommodation, and the apartments are fully furnished. This means you don’t have to worry about finding and paying for rent or buying furniture. Moreover, the transportation system is well-supported, and teachers receive transport allowances to cover their travel expenses to and from school. These additional perks contribute to making the teaching experience in South Korea more convenient and financially advantageous.

[@leemo3583]

This is my 8th year in Korea and having taught in public schools, private public schools and academies, contracts differ vastly for everyone. Smaller cities or the country side tend to be cheaper than the bigger cities, but cost of living is generally high. The downside to esl teaching in Korea is that they’ve increased their requirements while cutting down on perks and salaries. Salaries have been stagnant for over 10 years now. Many people here work for 2 or 3 years then move to China or UAE (if they’re qualified teachers). Side note: annual increases are also not guaranteed, most people don’t get them. Really depends on your school/contract.

Are Unions not driven by Government? If it's so, then, how can you expect unions to make fair change or difference. I realized that after being hit by Covid, prices of goods and services rose, but no serious increment were made for teachers 😢 Correct me if I am not well informed for such matters

[@user-vn2ez4rk3s]

Hey Bonnie, i like your program, its very interesting and informative. It blows my mind why the bonus is paid out with the salary. Obviously the tax deduction will be higher. Why not give the case for the unions to insist that the pay out on bonus must be made separately. Definitely they will see the difference that a bonus is been earned. By paying out the salary with the bonus, makes the gross earning following into a higher tax bracket.

[@petermakhubela5830]

NP(Non Pensionable) cash allowance, has been canceled & added to the overall salary increase to make it 7%. It was an allowance given in the place of salary increase, but it was not helping/affecting the Bonus, increase or pension & the amount depended on the individual's notch.

Hi Sis Boni, with regards to differences in tax deductions, there’s an option of “tax on bonus” where you decide if they will charge your bonus tax every month throughout the year only on the month you receive your bonus, but in this case, that deduction was still too high

[@liferesetwithboni]

Okay, but this was a persal enquiry, not a payslip. Don't know if it makes a difference, I couldn't see other deductions.

Boney, in South Africa you should not forget that they have pension whereby the employer matches what the teacher contribute. Also teachers get 67% subsidy on medical aid i they are with gems, meaning they pay only one third. While it may seemlike the foreign based teachers are earning more, the south african teachers are having many benefits. If you can do QUALITATIVE comparison you may find the real difference. Salary only comparisons may not give the true picture. I CHALLENGE YOU to look deeper.

[@liferesetwithboni]

It's not a comparison, I'm sharing what they shared with me. Can't compare the two due to many factors. I just share payslips as they are, but it's not the real net (what they have at the end of the day cos we don't have their expenses) check other videos, I do the same.

[@TM-kh7el]

Lol I used to teach in Japan and still got paid way more. Medical aid and pension included. Plus I got an extra 20 days of leave on top of school holidays. Bear in mind I only taught 3 days a week. So that was great. It really just depends 🤷🏾

[@thandasibisi7534]

Important point. I retired as Deputy Chief Education Specialist ( office based) with 34 years experience in 2016. I receive a comfortable pension with above inflation increments annually. My wife retired as a school based Head of Department for humanities with 40 years experience under her belt in 2020. Guess what. Her initial pension was roughly equivalent to her last salary as a teacher ( minus annual bonus) AND she also gets an annual increment at or above inflation rate. Can you really ask for more as a pensioner?

[@alfredmkendlana4424]

But the benefits from abroad also have allowances. Their pension for example in China, after 12 months its R1000000. But they can only cash it out after 10 years, which goes up as their income also increases. So the two are incomparable.

I heard they also employ Isizulu teachers, how true is that?

[@profoundroar6882]

Would be cool if you could compare payslips of different racial groups doing the same job on the same level.

[@liferesetwithboni]

No I can't.

[@nelisiwesonto2982]

Nope that not true maybe it was a mistake with a bonus you get taxed same amount, the other bonus basic salary you get it as it is, supposed to be 52 o 51k for bonus after deductions

[@liferesetwithboni]

I was really worried when I saw that. Thanks for the clarification. It would be really unfair if that was the case

[@user-ye5rt5cn3m]

Np cash allowance was jst for a certain period bcoz there was still negotiations between workers union and government

Okay

First Payslip Gross was R26K odd and deductions were R7K odd but net is R21K odd? how?🤔

[@liferesetwithboni]

Nope listen carefully, gross is 28k

[@bongitshabalala618]

Bonnie,please next time check salary for Cleaners.

[@liferesetwithboni]

I don't check, people randomly send them through.

It depends on your qualification n experience

👌

[@myuribasdew5391]

Boni thank you for these! I watch you all the time. Can you do South Africans teaching in the UAE?

[@liferesetwithboni]

Hey doll, I will have to request it! People just send me payslips randomly.

[@myuribasdew5391]

Thanks so much Boni. I hope some people do send them through to you. Alot of our people have gone to the UAE because of their tax free salaries. I think what will be interesting is how they live with the money they earn there...like how similar it is to our cost of living and how they are making it there compared to here.

[@liferesetwithboni]

@Myuri Basdew I will request on Tik tok. So far I do get them if I'm specific. This week I will post private school payslips that will leave you shocked.

[@mtekzamtfans665]

UAE pays a lot.. last time I checked first time educators earn 14 000 UAE that's roughly R80 000 a month you can't earn less than that... UAE requirements are too much than those of China and South Korea.. you can't teach in UAE without a teacher's degree and atleast 2 years experience

[@DeeDiva777]

The one of the bonus is not accurate. The tax for bonus is paid monthly so that one can get their bonus in full.

[@beewest5704]

Bonuses shift your salary up in the tax bracket so you get taxed at a higher percentage.

[@liferesetwithboni]

Oh I see

[@LeloClosetqueen]

Yep its true. I have a friend teaching kids in South Korea n she is leaving her best life earning way more than what South African teachers are earning

[@liferesetwithboni]

BEAUTIFUL 😍

[@ScissorN]

Beautiful but the downside is they dont have provident fund plus no UIF if you loose your job then you dont get same benefits as a SA teacher would … if you die your family wont get those long life benefits so sometimes we should look at the long term .. i would still choose to teach in SA

[@masihlanganembandazayo6531]
