Hi All,
I sent my resume to CONVERZUM-Tudomany Nyelviskola in Budapest to teach English, and received a letter back that they will be happy to offer me a position if I will get a teacher's certification.
They referred me to a school, that on completion also offers jobs, in fact, they guarantee it...
This was very good news, as I was worried about my budget of approximately HUF 370,000 per month for living expenses. From what I gather online, the monthly salary for language teachers for a 25-30 hour work week is about HUF 260,000 per month.
Even though I will have to pay U.S. taxes, with deductions, I would have over HUG 600,000 per month to live on with a nice job. Minus, of course some Hungarian taxes, on the 260,000... (there is a treaty between U.S. and Hungary that you only pay taxes in one country, so I still have to figure that out)
Please tell me that the salary is a realistic number!!! PLEASE! It would make my day... Hell; it would make my life!
Is this too good to be true; is there some hidden caveat that disqualifies me - e.g.: my age?
Thanks,
Livia
