I'm just a simple girl working on her dreams step by step. I often take the road less taken because I believe in the power that is within me, that drives the vision for my life. I'm a BSc Biological Science graduate from Wits University and PGCE graduate from STADIO higher education. I'm also a martial artist with a first degree blackbelt in the Korean Martial Art called Tang Soo Do. My teaching journey began with teaching children and young people martial arts during my university years. I'm currently training Taekwondo in South Korea. I was a Science teacher in South Africa before moving to South Korea to become an English teacher.

I think it's best to go work there instead of staying unemployed here for the whole year this side.
Hi sisi what happens if you’re owing an institution and you can’t get hold of your certificate or transcript?
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉
Are you still teaching in SA
Sorry for your loss and my condolence
I really admire your videos
Hello really like your videos
Oh thank you
Is it only South African s or foreigners can also apply
Want to teach in south africa from Ghana..what should i do first..what does sace work..should i search fir schools from home or i should move in
Hi, I have no idea about foreign teachers in 🇿🇦, but they’re here! Maybe research the VISA types for Ghananians in South Africa.
Let'sssss gooooo 🎉❤
Am from Nigeria, i have master degree and i intend to come Oman for a teaching job. Please kindly help me or link to a school in Oman.
Hello, I don’t know any specific school I can refer you to. Best bet is to Google schools in Oman and apply using the HR email address or apply through agencies. I also don’t know much the process for Nigeria Teachers🙏🏾all the best!
Yeeeey finally found a UA-camr on this
🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️
Hi Makgabo, thanks for the informative video. I have beeeen applying to the UAE. I eventually got a contract with ESE, but the contract was not so family friendly as most of my salary would be all spent on school fees and accomodation and hence pulled out. I’ve been applying for years to try and get a contract that will be best suited to my situation. I find that most agencies favour western trained teachers. How did you make sure that secure a job that side, perhaps in terms of CV, interview tips, etc. any helpful tips that can make one successful. And which one helped you you to get your job. Kind regards.
Hello, wow I’ve seen many people move with their family to the UAE. Is that your only focus ? I’ve also seen people move with to China as family. I usually see parents recommending going away for a year to figure it out before bringing child/children or entire family along. Are you in the Facebook groups for South Africans in UAE? I don’t have enough knowledge as I’m currently single and child free. I’m happy to share my resume ,cover letter and interview tips. Although I genuinely think it was God’s favour more than anything. It felt like a miracle honestly.
@@makgabomahopo thank you so much for your response. I have tried Facebook groups but havnt had much success where information is concerned. I didn’t really think of China, lol I’ve heard not so great stories about it. I am looking specifically at the UAE and Qatar. Many teachers I’ve spoken to have had good experiences there. Can I get in contact with you on your email? ( I got it from the previous comment) Regards🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@thala40 alright! Let’s talk more! Yeah China is absolutely NOT for everyone. I think that other side of Asia 😂
@@thala40 I’ll look out for your email
You can also try Taiwan, I moved with my family there
Hey, new subbiie I am enjoying your content 🎉have you found a country to move to ?
Wow hello and welcome. Thank you so much for watching and engaging. I appreciate it! I haven’t disclosed where I’m going yet .🤍
Financial siya gowa in South Korea 😢 im happy for the experience but im ready to move now
I think Korea can be hard when you have many responsibilities back home !! I’d be happy to help you to move 🤍
Since I don't have any responsibilities, living there might be easy for me?
Witsie for Life ❤️

I enjoy being physically alone. But I'm always on a call with someone from home family, partner, friends but sometimes the time difference means I can't communicate with them...I also have groups for social activities like roller skating... After that I'm good.

Hey you Apostille SAQA verification letter(it will already be attached to a copy of your degree)
Hey do you need to attest your academic transcripts?
@@kamopitso394 hi, depends on where you’re going ? The country /program should tell you how they want things to be done.
Thank you so much sweetheart😘✨✨ @@makgabomahopo
Thank you so much sweetheart, you're best 😘

Where in korea did you stay??
You’re honestly saving a lot of new professionals with your experience and information. Thank you!

Hello, hope you are well. Is there a way I can get in contact with you?
Hi send me a WhatsApp here +27 63 011 8934
Helo Makgabo... ❤❤❤❤Love you lots
Thank you, you’re so kind🤍
Hey I also returned to SA, I can't wait to watch all of your videos, just watched 1 today... I would like to get in touch with you, would this be possible?
Hello you can send me a WhatsApp here +27 63 011 8934
Thank you for watching 🙏🏾
As for not voting for ANC😂. I salute you on that one. We're bringing the new SA tomorrow. I also don't see myself working on SA shem BTW, it's always inspiring listening to you. You are shining🎉❤
😭😭😭we can’t be voting for ANC please 🤣! I doubt anything is gonna change tomorrow, but we will vote! Thank you for your kind words🙏🏾 and thank you for watching.
@@makgabomahopo It's a pleasure babe❤️ Aowa there's has to be a change. I prayed about it too yoh
I would love to work abroad as well. Not necessarily EPIK. I don't know how to navigate that though. Would you mind sharing tips on one of your next videos.
Hey I only know about teaching opportunities. Are you a teacher too?
@@makgabomahopo Yes I am.
This is beautiful Congratulations 🎉 I am so inspired🎉😅
Thank you so much 🤗
You are not wrong, it is the easiest job in the world. Also it is not a career for young people starting out. it is a stop gap. The majority of agencies or ESL UA-camrs tell you there is no career growth in teaching English. People ignore this for the glamour of being in another country.
Thank you for watching 🫰🏾
But it's obvious that since you teaching English you'll automatically have the experience.
will you be moving to korea for the science teaching job? or will you be looking elsewhere?
Congratulations on your new job 🎉🎉🎉 and sorry for the loss of your grandmother
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I'm proud of you Motlogolo❤
Thank you Malome 🤍
Please can you tell us if the salary is worth moving from South Africa to South Korea? You don't have to mension the salaries just please estimate.
Hello Nomcebo, if you’re unemployed and have nothing it’s absolutely worth it. It’s a good head start and salary increases with your experience! So yes it’s a 10000% worth it, in my opinion.I would gladly go back to Korea if I wanted to remain in the ESL industry, but I am a science teacher, and I like science too. For me, it’s more than just money. Even if I could get paid R1 000 000 000 per month in South Africa, I still wouldn’t choose to live here at this point in my life because of the QUALITY of life here. No amount of money can compare to the freedom, convenience and safety I felt living in Korea.The EPIK salary scale is also public m.epik.go.kr/description/salary01.php Maybe I’ll do a video and break it down ?
@@makgabomahopo Thank you so much for your prompt response.
I’ve always wanted to ask. How to do the PPT FOR EPIK application 😭 last month I applied for JEP PROGRAM but didn’t go through because of the PPT, can you plz help
Hello I suggest contacting Korvia, Goldkey education or Korean Horizons. They’ll gladly help you EVERY STEP OF THE WAY AND PERFECT YOUR APPLICATION
