 Re: Do you make enough money in ESL as a career?
I earn a decent salary in China, it might not be as much as you guys are earning in Japan and Germany but the cost of living is a lot cheaper here. I think ESL teaching has a lot has to do with how good a teacher you are! My salary is about 1,000 pounds sterling(UK) for 20 teaching hours per week. I live very comfortably on about 20% of my salary as I have free accommodation with all bills paid. I also get a paid return flight to the UK every year. So I can quite honestly say, Yes I make enough money. I don't even bother teaching private classes as I like my free time. |
