teaching english in hong kong
"Working in Hong Kong will be an enjoyable experience overall. The students are
pleasant and better behavaed than in England/western Europe. They are eager to
learn and have a great sense of humour. Many youngsters have a basic grasp of
English. There are many expats in HK and British/Irish pubs and bars. The food
is great but if you go to a nice restaraunt expect to pay western prices. They
have a great underground rail system the MTR which is cheap, punctual and
popular. Taxis are also very cheap for short hops. Rent can be high though due
to the lack of flat land. Expect to be in a 30 storey apartment building unless
you've got money. Crime is very low. Best places for entertainment are Wanchai
and Causeway Bay and Kowloon. Be careful of street merchants "copy rolex" and
"cheap suits sir" A great place overall, Better than South Korea that's for
sure."
