DON'T Work Abroad Philippines, Why Teaching English In The Philippines Won't Work

Stay in the Philippines! http://badladz.com/

If you're planning on coming to work abroad Philippines, as a kind of working vacation...

DON'T.

Your chances are not very good.

There's 100 million people here. They speak English and they work cheap. Teaching English in the Philippines might sound good in paper, but it's near impossible to get a job.

As a foreigner, you might get a job working for somebody. You'll earn $200 - $400 a month. That's maybe 20,000 pesos. Whole families live here for 10,000 pesos a month.

These people are professionals. They go to University and study hard. The best chance of working here in the Philippines is if you can work off you laptop.

There's a lot of us that travel around here. Laptops. Cell phones. We're connected. There's fast WiFi everywhere.

And thats a nice way to make a living.

If you do that, you can be out here. Your laptop is close by. I'm only about 10 minutes from mine. I'm just having a little break from the office...

Get a taste of working abroad Philippines... Relax at one of the best Puerto Galera resorts, BADLADZ! Bring your laptop and kick ass!

People can work in nearby parts of Asia then vacation in Philippines when they're on holiday.

i dont get this video at all. i used to make p50,000/month + free food every day teaching at a korean english school in Manila. Before I found that place I was makin 300p/hr for english teaching, and other jobs like that....not bad at all. 30-35k a month for teaching english to koreans. they come in the boat loads from korea to get cheaper english than they do in korea, works fine. I dont get why hes sayin dont do it. i did it for 4 years and lived very fine.

the advantages of living in the developing country standard of living very cheap. the moment the economy getting better the standard of living getting expensive too. like here in London standard of living very expensive every piece of space here it cost a lot of money especially mortgage and rent. no time to relax you should running arround like maniac to earn money.

@Kemrant,

I'm talking about people teaching English in other parts of Asia, Korea, Japan, China, etc. They can vacation in the Philippines or other parts of Asia when they're on holiday because it isn't that far away. Much shorter/cheaper flight than coming directly from North America or Europe.

@ButheJackcameBack Are you talking about teaching english? It is my understanding that a TEFL degree is not enough. I think badlaz must be retired military with a pension so now he is living the dream and doesnt have to work.
