Hi,
I am new to the city and I am looking to meet people who are about to start teaching or are currently teaching to get an insight into the job, school system, teaching methods etc. I am about to start a CELTA and begin teaching so would appreciate an inside look into how it all runs.
I would also like to just get to know fellow expats and go for a drink 
Drop me a line if you fancy meeting up for drinks and discussion - whether this be coffee or something stronger!
Cheers,
Sophie
New to HCMC, looking to get to know other English teachers/expats :)

Hey Sophie,
I just arrived in HCMC on August 27th and am now living in D1. I am learning about the ESL landscape here. What I need to find is a school where I can volunteer 20 hours - a requirement for my certification. Does your school accommodate volunteers?
On a more personal note, I have not met any expats here yet (I plan to go to the get together on Saturday). I'd like to meet up and exchange stories... over craft beer, if it really exists here!

Definitely HCMC. I've been to both and HCMC is so much easier to live in.
