The borders are gonna open and when they do, you wanna be financially ready (or almost there). I hope this helps, besties! ♥ Ps. I forgot to mention that my school used to give me groceries money when I still lived on campus,
I'm 12 years old and my goal is to teach English in China one day when I'm old enough to have the job and this makes me just want to save my money so when I move to China I will have lots of money. This helps so much I am so happy that u are here to help me thur my journey for teaching English in China and living there I might come talk to u if its ok when I'm like 18 but I will still comment on ur vids!! Sending love from CT usa😍😘😗😙
I have watched a few of your videos and have found them extremely informative. Thank you for taking the time to share the information with all of us. ❤
Hi I was wondering if you could do a video about meeting people/making friends as an English teacher in Shanghai? I'm a very social person and am concerned about leaving my social network. How have you found it?
I could try, but that would be from an introvert's perspective. Something I've really struggled with also. I have made friend's but it's just not the same here...
Hey mam i love ur vdos I’m ur new subscriber, u make very informative vdos. But i’ve one question for u. Will company purchase visa and ticket for me if I’m hiring by them.?
Hi dear... is 5000 rmb enought to live in Shandong? Considering that the company will pay for the accommodation... plz tell me am very hesitant... (I cook at home and I don't drink alcohol..)... they Said commissions are very high (sales position)
Hi, How much does it cost to rent a small apartment (city center or outside) in other cities than Shanghai? for example chongqing If you can give it in dollars it would be better, thanks!
Thanks hun for information❤️ I'm currently in Taiwan and I want to come there with boyfriend and sister next year around August. Is it possible to find offers close to each other?
Hello Mbatha I just want ask this question to you, if you have done your Tesol certificate in America do you authenticate in America or you can authenticate your Tesol certificate where ever you are?
@@NomfundoMbatha I'm not willing to pay much. Where can a person reside outside of the city for roughly 4k or less 🙆🏽♀️? I mean it can be outside of Xuhui city centre but convenient to travel/commute to work there.
@@nkululekomabaso1629 I really don’t know cause I don’t live in Xuhui and have never. I can’t help with this. I just know that if you want to live alone in Shanghai, your rent will be higher. For a decent home, of course.
@@NomfundoMbatha thank you. I'm fine with sharing an apartment as long as I have my own bedroom and share the other rooms, such as the kitchen. In South Africa, I work as a teacher and live in a commune with other teachers. I don't want to squander my money on rent. Right now, I'm feeling a little frustrated. I hope I can find someone who is willing to share.
I'm earning 15Lakhs in India and got an offer in Suzhou, China. How much salary should I ask for? Please answer as per the current inflation prices of rent, food, travel expenses extra. I'm single.Cost of living in Suzhou
@@NomfundoMbatha I hope this doesn’t get you in trouble with UA-cam 😭 i will do better. I genuinely thought it helps with growing / having more engagement on the channel 😭😭 analytics and all.
Hello, that salary PLUS housing and other benefits? I'm not sure about the stipend also. I benefited from it in 2021 for about 6 months. It's safe to say they put an end to it where I'm at.
@@NomfundoMbatha thanks. One more thing, we are from London I am moving with my family, I have a 7yo child, how is the schools in Shanghai? Is it really very expensive?
Hey, Rachel. So, I really don't know much about the authentication process. I outsourced the process by hiring a company to get it done for me. I also don't know anything about TEFL certificates. I don't have one. I'd advise you to directly check with the Chinese or South African embassy. About the medical examination, I'd do it in my own country first just to avoid unpleasant surprises. I'm sorry I couldn't help much. ♥

Hi, thank you and welcome! 😁
I did touch on the plane ticket in the video. About the visa, your employer takes care of that.
I don’t like meat too and my iron level aren’t good. How do you keep the right iron levels in your blood? I need a plug

I'm a mom of 24 year old girl
I convince her to go work in other country
How can she contact you privately to ask you questions.
Thank you
Hi Phindiswa, you can start by sharing my channel with her. That should help answer most of her questions.
What's the name of the rental app?
Hi, about the water situation, is it safe for you to use it to brush your teeth, or is it bottled water all the way? Like also for cooking?
Hi, it’s safe and not safe in some instances.
Use a water filter or charoal sticks its common
Hi, How much does it cost to rent a small apartment (city center or outside) in other cities than Shanghai?
for example chongqing
If you can give it in dollars it would be better, thanks!
Good to have you back 🫶🏾🫶🏾.

Is it possible to find offers close to each other?
You're welcome.
Yeah, I think that's possible.

It doesn’t matter where you did your certificate.
@@NomfundoMbatha Thank you Mbatha 🙌🙌🙌
In which district do you reside in Shanghai? How’s the cost of rent in Xuhui?
Rent is expensive in Xuhui.

I can't say. I don't live in Suzhou, so I don't know the cost of living there.
@@NomfundoMbatha How much will it for Shanghai for my profile?
This is what I have been thinking about too. I discovered here a guy who said he moved to China with R0 😭
Possible but I'd say save if you can. Shit gets real here.
Hey, thks for the video. Do u think it is possible to live in Shanghai with 3000 RMB if I don't pay the rent bc of the uni?
Hey, yes. That should be more than enough (depending on your lifestyle).
@@NomfundoMbatha thks
We can I find the video where you suggested we don’t take 25 MBs?
I don’t understand?
How is it staying in a school ? Would you consider it ? And is it free free ?
We talked about spamming the comments section, Wandile. 💀
Living at work was fine. Wouldn't do it again though. Yes, it was free. No bills whatsoever.
@@NomfundoMbatha I hope this doesn’t get you in trouble with UA-cam 😭 i will do better. I genuinely thought it helps with growing / having more engagement on the channel 😭😭 analytics and all.
@@wandilewawa I understand and thank you for being thoughtful. ♥
Hy Ms Mbatha, tell me is 13660 RMB a fair amount to earn in shenzen China 🇨🇳 and whether the covid stipend still exist? Thank 🧒 u
Hello, that salary PLUS housing and other benefits? I'm not sure about the stipend also. I benefited from it in 2021 for about 6 months. It's safe to say they put an end to it where I'm at.
for Shenzhen, I think that's too little.
okay we are here for it...
Thank you! 😁
Hi, whats the app called for finding a flat?
Hey, it’s called ‘Ziroom’.
@@NomfundoMbatha thanks. One more thing, we are from London I am moving with my family, I have a 7yo child, how is the schools in Shanghai? Is it really very expensive?
@@jcruz8408 I don’t really have info on that. It’s subjective,but you can ask your employer to assist you.

@@NomfundoMbatha Thank you Nomfundo! < 3
Who did you outsource? (If you don't mind me asking?)
@@kgomotsohlaka7755 I used a company called Visa Logistics. Not sure if they still operating.
what is a RMB ?
I don't know.
@@NomfundoMbatha it’s the yuan
@@quilaunrise I knew that. Wanted you to look it up yourself.

@@NomfundoMbatha Goodmorning 👍
I love this❤️
Shes Black, but her mannerisms are Chinese. Shes fascinating
I will relocate to Shanghai very soon, the living cost is bloody high…..
It is especially housing.
@@NomfundoMbatha 😅indeed...housing almost accounts for 50% of my salary (shared apartment, one room, in Huangpu)...
@@binliang9981 Huangpu is super expensive. That's at the heart of everything. Anything CLOSE to Pudong and the BUND can be crazy expensive.
Dollars????👎👎👎👎
What about your beauty expenses?....or it's all natural ??
Toiletries are very subjective. Depends on one's preferences. Mine are expensive.
