Hello there,
I would love to spent some time in HK teaching English starting next school year 06/07. What would my chances be at getting english teaching job in HK?

I am from Slovakia with finished MBA studies (management, marketing) at american university, have ESL certificate, and teaching experience in my free time (teaching mostly the individuals). I have spent 4 summer holidays in the US, where I gained excellent English.

I will appreacciate any comment!
Thanks!
Zuzana

Oh it depends on what kind of schools you wanna teach in. Have a look at different job websites in HK, mainstream / international school should start recruiting people for next academic yeat pretty soon.

Have you thought of teaching business courses or something like that? There should be plenty of chances in the market as well. If you'd be interest in teaching both fields, I guess you'd have a higher chance to find something here!

Good luck and let me know if you need any help, I may be able to give a hand

Cheers, Blom

Sounding cynical here, but if you're blonde and blue-eyed........... you've got the job.
