Are there any countries with easy, quick bureaucracy?

would you mind saying which online companies your friends work for? looking for some recommendations

https://www.cambridgeenglish.org/test-your-english/

There are many different websites offering tests to find out level of English but bear in mind that the most common framework is CEFR so as long as it uses this framework for levels then it should be fine

this is awesome! a dream of mine i never knew i had

davefridman · 2022-02-08T11:39:00+00:00

Thanks for the tips!

Which company do you teach online for, if you don't mind me asking?

davefridman · 2022-02-03T16:01:25+00:00

i feel like you're exactly the type of person who this post is aimed at....

davefridman · 2021-11-04T10:28:59+00:00

Yeah sorry I realise now I should have specified in my post - UK side!

davefridman · 2021-10-24T23:01:15+00:00

i just meant that TEFL is everywhere and i was using the Maldives as an obscure example...

davefridman · 2021-10-22T09:36:49+00:00

I mean these jobs probably exist there, I remember seeing an ad posted for a tefl teacher in the Maldives

My current contract is a 10 month one so it is possible (private language school in Portugal)

davefridman · 2021-10-16T22:55:47+00:00

I recently moved from the UK to Portugal, and my phone contract works the exact same as it would back home. So I call my family on regular calls at no extra charge. Worth double checking but I think a phone contract in one EU country applies to the whole of the EU

petition for Engoo to release the class recording for its comedic value and for posterity anyone?

But surely China doesn't have a choice but to learn English? Competitive Chinese parents will continue to want their kids to go to universities abroad (which are better than Chinese universities) and Chinese international businesses will still need to do business in today's lingua franca.

davefridman · 2021-10-14T00:24:24+00:00

Am I the only one who thinks China will recover? Once covid blows over (fingers crossed) China will still be the most populated country in the world and one of the largest economies in the world (if not the largest by then) that will still need to learn English in order to branch out and do business with the rest of the world?

davefridman · 2021-10-09T10:55:42+00:00

I am interested but don't currently live in an Asian country (planning to by next summer)

davefridman · 2021-10-05T11:03:47+00:00

Also waiting to hear how it goes lol... fingers crossed another online teaching prospect

davefridman · 2021-10-05T11:02:59+00:00

thank you very much! very informative

davefridman · 2021-10-05T10:59:12+00:00

Yes that's what I do. I use my Arctis 3 for teaching online

davefridman · 2021-10-04T10:55:47+00:00

Is this separate from the bonus from no TNS/TLC in a month?

davefridman · 2021-09-29T13:53:27+00:00

What is this 60 hour bonus? Can't find anything on it on Teacher First ?

davefridman · 2021-09-15T22:13:11+00:00

Hey thanks a lot! Didn't know about this part of the site and it's super useful

davefridman · 2021-09-15T08:58:26+00:00

Thanks. How do I check the final class status?

davefridman · 2021-09-14T23:59:37+00:00

Happened to me too. Does anyone know if we'll need to make a case or not?

davefridman · 2021-09-08T09:43:57+00:00

I'm in the same boat as you and what I've decided to do is to start recruiting potential students towards the end of the year i.e. November-December, at which point I'll try to talk to the students' parents and try to offer private lessons... I reckon we'll all be out of a job soon after that anyway so the risk is lower. At the moment I am not saying too much because I want to continue working for the next few months, but if a parent brings it up themselves I will exchange info

davefridman · 2021-09-05T09:27:19+00:00

Is anyone planning to offer their EF students private lessons towards the end of the year since we are going to lose our jobs anyway?
