Teaching English in Singapore

Hi,

Currenly living in Thailand with my wife and child where I teach English and am also studying at university. We have long decided that we do not want to send our daughter to school in Thailand and are sure that relocating to Singapore would be a sensible move.

Can anyone tell me, what are the prospects of finding English teaching work in Singapore for a native speaker with TEFL and experience but as yet no degree?

Is it possible to study in English towards a degree in Singapore, if so can it be done in the evening, what kind of costs are inlvolved?

I would also like to get in touch with anyone in a similar position in Singapore, (ex-pat teacher supporting a family) or indeed prospective employers!

Any other information, good areas to stay / cost of living / visa regs. (I am British + my wife is Indonesian) / good schools and costs, would be greatfully recieved.

Many thanks

Ian

Hi Ian,
I'm also planning to relocate to Singapore after taking my TESOL course. I've also posted on this board regarding my inquiry on jobs for TESOL teachers. I've seen offers on-line so check out ESL websites. You have the edge to teach in singapore since you have experienced it in Thailand.

Tell me, is it worth it to work as TESOL teacher in Thailand? My friend wants to teach there too.

Best wishes to you and God bless you!

Expats' family is seeking for a private English tutor(native
speaker) for a 3.5 years old energetic, communicative and easy-to-go boy.
2 times a week classes for 2 hours are desired by parents, but
we are flexible and the details are fairly negotiable.
Interested teachers are welcome to contact Yulia by e-mail
[email protected] or mobile (65) 94357975.

You really think they are still around? That post was made over 5 years ago by an unregistered poster.

Oh right, good point! Still a little new at all this and didn't think to look at the date. Cheers
