English Literature, Maths, Science and Primary Tutors in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

About the Job

Overview

Are you interested in relocating to one of South East Asia’s most vibrant and dynamic cities? Do you want to teach your passion rather than ESL? We need Maths, Science, English Literature and Primary Level tutors! Instead of ESL teaching, tutors can share their passion for their degree subjects, building close relationships and transforming students’ futures. The International Tutor Group (ITG) is a Tutoring Centre rather than a school, providing academic and mentoring support to students from Vietnam’s best international schools. All you need is a flair for your subject, a strong degree, and preferably some experience working with young people.

ITG is offering full-time positions in Vietnam’s emerging hub of Ho Chi Minh City. We’re on the hunt for experienced tutors who can support leading international school students up to IGCSE and IB / A-Level. You’ll have flexible working hours and still be able to dedicate time to your personal projects or simply enjoy Vietnamese local life.

ITG is a British-run company specializing in academic support for all international curricula. We’re a small, family-style set up with about 20 teachers working mostly 1-1 and in small groups. Tutors will have the opportunity to make lasting and effective relationships with their students in a supportive professional environment. ITG offers extensive training and curriculum guidance from international school teachers with years of experience. When you arrive in HCMC we’ll help organise every aspect of your stay from accommodation to your work permit and residency card.

It is only our opinion, but we think there has never been a better time to be in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). Drenched in history, Saigon is a city in the midst of a mind-boggling transformation. New skyscrapers, hip international bars and buzzing arts venues appear on an almost weekly basis. This is set amongst the last vestiges of a sleepy French Colonial past and the utterly distinctive quality of traditional street life, with its bustling coffee shops and mouthwatering food vendors. Our gorgeous Study Centre is located in a leafy suburb just a short hop from the city centre, so you’ll be sure to make the most of it all whilst having ample space to relax.
