Hi, I taught at an international school in HK for about 14 years. I started in 2004 at HK$40K per month and worked my way up the pay scale to HK$85K per month. I've moved back to the UK a few years ago and can't find a job anywhere that will pay even half that. But that's ok, 14 years in HK was enough.
@@NomadicTeachers Good? Perhaps. But was it worth it? That's debatable when you take into account the BS I, no we, had to put up with from senior management
I was working in Shenzhen for the past year (came back to the US last month), and while my salary was pretty average for a teaching salary there, I was still saving a lot each month. I’ve been considering Hong Kong, but it’s difficult when comparing it to the cost of living in Shenzhen which is theoretically walking distance from HK 😪
Caveat. Yes, personal income tax is low at 15%, and no sales tax, versus 35% of the US, also no sales tax (not sure different in each state). But Hong Kong cost of living is high. Apartment rent and eating out, for example. Transportation cost is low though, for MTR and Taxi. Telecom like Wi-Fi is the most efficient among world metro cities.
I am a graduate mechanical engineer can I teach mathematics in Hong Kong school please inform me and what is the starting salary of mathematics teacher in Hong Kong per month

That’s a good teaching salary. Thanks for sharing

14 years? Wow people mostly tell about good stuff mostly. Can you tell how did you manage to put up live in HK?

That’s true. They’re close in proximity, but are culturally world’s apart.
@@NomadicTeachers Yeah, all of my friends that lived in China pre-Covid and had the luxury of visiting HK have told me the same thing 😂
@@ItsSeanzie Yep, pre-covid China pretty much ruled in all aspects.
Thank you

Meh. HK living costs is cheap. Our mortgage is only 9% of our net income because mortgage rates are low
Nice video. I’m interested in maximizing my income out here.
Interesting. What do you mean by that?
Which school are you teaching??💁🏻♀️
Research Doximity and look to create something similar in your field.
