The Location

Welcome to Saigon, where vibrant culture, rich history, and modern energy collide to create an unforgettable living experience! Imagine starting your day with a steaming cup of Vietnamese coffee (the kind that could wake up a hibernating bear), grabbing a fresh banh mi from a street vendor who greets you like an old friend, and zipping off on your scooter through the bustling streets of this dynamic city.

Teaching in Saigon isn’t just about the classroom – it’s about embracing a lifestyle that’s as lively as the city itself. You’ll find yourself enchanted by the contrast of ancient pagodas and sleek skyscrapers, while the warm, welcoming locals will make you feel right at home. After work, indulge in mouthwatering pho at a hidden gem of a restaurant or explore the city’s vibrant nightlife scene, where rooftop bars and quirky cafes await.

On weekends, take a break from the hustle and bustle by visiting nearby beaches, floating markets, or lush countryside escapes. Saigon isn’t just a place to teach; it’s a place to live, explore, and create memories that will last a lifetime. Ready to embark on the adventure? Saigon is waiting for you with open arms (and maybe a bowl of noodles too)!
