American Tesol

More and more people are graduating from college with a teaching degree and then forgoing traditional career paths. Rather than applying at schools near their own home, they are looking abroad for teaching positions. Many have made the choice to teach in Vietnam before they return to the American school system.

The great thing about making the decision to go to teach in Vietnam is that you are not necessarily locked into a long term teaching contract. There are some who chose to stay there for years and years, but there are also other who decide to only teach in Vietnam for a very short period of time. Although the length of time that you will be expected to teach in Vietnam is going to depend on the teaching position that you accept, the minimum amount of time required to qualify for a visa to teach in the country is only one month. The fact that the Vietnam does not lock teachers into a long term contract that require the person to remain there for several years makes the teaching positions very appealing. Most of the young teachers who decide to teach in Vietnam find themselves choosing between teaching contracts that are 1-3 month obligation and positions that are designed to last for a year. Once the contract is up, the teacher is going to have to decide if they want to teach somewhere else, or if they would like to take another teaching position in Vietnam.

If you are a teacher who has a strong desire to see the world, a Vietnam teaching position is going to be a good choice for you. Both the average Vietnam school schedules as well as its location in Asia make it very easy for you to travel to other parts of the continent without jeopardizing your contract. Teaching English in the heart of Asia, Vietnam, is a wonderful experience. There are many teaching positions available throughout the country. It is also easy to travel to other parts of Asia while teaching English in Vietnam.

The conquest of Vietnam by France began in 1858 and was completed by 1884. It became part of French Indochina in 1887. Independence was declared after World War II, but the French continued to rule until 1954 when they were defeated by Communist forces under Ho Chi Minh, who took control of the North. US economic and military aid to South Vietnam grew through the 1960s in an attempt to bolster the government, but US armed forces were withdrawn following a cease-fire agreement in 1973. Two years later, North Vietnamese forces overran the South. Despite the return of peace, for over two decades the country experienced little economic growth because of conservative leadership policies. Since 2001, Vietnamese authorities have committed to economic liberalization and enacted structural reforms needed to modernize the economy and to produce more competitive, export-driven industries. The country continues to experience protests from the Montagnard ethnic minority population of the Central Highlands over loss of land to Vietnamese settlers and religious persecution.

Vietnam, officially the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, is the easternmost nation on the Indochina Peninsula. It borders China to the north, Laos to the northwest, and Cambodia to the southwest. On the country's east coast lies the South China Sea. With a population of over 85 million, Vietnam is the 13th most populous country in the world. The country is listed among the "Next Eleven" economies; according to government figures GDP growth was 8.17% in 2006, the second fastest growth rate among countries in East Asia and the fastest in Southeast Asia.
