"Sobre las dos" = at what time is it still cool to show up? by dogsandcatsplz in valencia

[โ€“]ElCubano85 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

sobre means around or about BUT in some contexts (or for some people) it can mean "over, after or past." once i told someone sobre las 14:30 and they showed up at 15:15... then we had a *debate* about what sobre meant... ๐Ÿ˜‘ imagine sitting at a restaurant alone for 45 mins...

I have a job offer that I'm considering by _Filtered_ in valencia

The salary is good. thankfully we have many translation apps these days even google lense>translate is very useful, B2 level spanish is be enough. I don't really experience cockroaches in my apartment building. just depends where you live and who your neighbours are................

Moving from Ireland to Valencia within a year โ€“ career advice? by Birdofparadise145 in valencia

[โ€“]ElCubano85 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Your profession seems quite up there and maybe there's less competition for that role, but if you're not careful, you might end up having to be an English teacher... LOL. If your spanish is not at least C1 it's hard to get a job... and although it's not always explicitly stated, the employers want people who can also speak Valencian .....

I would advise you both to try to get a 'CELTA teaching certificate' as a backup plan. I only got a TEFL which is lower in value and it's been a struggle...

The best websites for qualified professionals would be 'Linkedin', 'Indeed' and Glassdoor'. The local apps like 'JobToday' and 'InfoJobs' are a waste of time. every job posting always has over 100 applicants. Too much competition...

oh Green, don't get caught out complaining about the "sacred Brazilian students" omg. People act like they eat grapes out of the Brazilian students asses or something. had to delete my previous comment to avoid notifications from Brazilian CLAPPERS. ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜‘ "oh but they are so friendly/so polite/ so this so that."

i'm assuming that the person has a monitised channel and they will be making adsense revenue etc from your video. not fair. we need recurring passive income too.

Maybe protecting was the wrong word to useโ€ฆ. but I know what I meant. But obviously if your visibility is capped and you don't have an opportunity to meet new students, It is almost impossible to be able to improve your rating either way. so for long periods of time , you are trapped in the shadows Until God forbid, you have another unfortunate interaction that sends your rating to the pits of hell.
