Help! Looking for work in Vietnam

Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone could help or point me in the right direction.
I'm in Vietnam and looking for work as an english teacher. I've completed 120 hours of TEFL, however my biggest issue is I don't have a BA degree.
I've heard it's still possible to get work, does anyone have any contacts or advise? I've just arrived in Ho Chi Minh, and willing to work here or re-locate anywhere in the country if work can be found easier.....

Hey,

How's it going in Ho Chi Minh city? If you're there on the ground you might have some luck finding TEFL jobs without a degree, but be careful of working on the wrong visa. I believe you may need a degree in order to legally get your working visa.

To get you started you should head over to our TEFL community Chalkboard to chat to these guys who are currently teaching in Vietnam - they should be able to give you some pointers about how best to look for jobs:

Hope that helps - give me a shout on here or on Chalkboard (http://www.onlinetefl.com/tefl-chalkboard/honor ) if you have any questions!
