CELTA would increase your wagesRetspihied wrote:That would take 80% of the savings I'm coming with and force me to live on my $850 a month while taking that course and after.vladimir wrote:CELTA is $1700, course staring January 8 at ACE near Russian Market in Phnom Penh
Is that worth doing?
Is the course diffiult?
If it’s worth it depends on how long you’re going to stay. You pay $1,700 but get $200 more in wages a month. (Not sure if $200 is legit, I’m not a teacher). Assuming $200 pm, If you were not planning to teach over a year it’s not worth the $1,700 and time spent to get $2.4k back.
If you’re not sure I would say get the CELTA. I wasn’t sure and stayed 5 years, many people end up staying longer.
