With low living costs, vibrant culture combined with reliable and extensive transport, Vietnam remains a teaching favorite. Hanoi is located in the north, and known for its robust life and chaotic traffic, but many have fallen in love with this destination nicknamed city of lakes.
Hanoi has a healthy global community swaddled in Vietnam’s colorful culture. Teaching classes often happen in the evenings (when everyone is out of work) or on weekends. This lenient 20-25 hour work week is what often draws teachers to Hanoi, and with a little hunting you can even land a teaching job in Vietnam that enables you to save some of your monthly paycheck of $2,000.
