How much would it cost to employ a local fulltime as a language teacher ?

Monthly wage type situation for example.

Just thinking with 4 of us, it might be easier all around, to just hire someone on a monthly wage and they come to our place each day for x hours and do what they have to do.

We could be flexible and makes the whole process much easier....for us.

Would this be doable ?

er yes. Maybe earning her way through uni. Anyway when I log on facebook somehow a group 'Bali Unlimited' pops up. Scrolling through this group to 7th post from a 'Beau Bruderlin' . Click his name and gives details about teacher.
I find the whole FB thing strange. Good luck.

Thanks...found her, more by luck than good skill.

But, she might be a tad too cute for my wife to be ok with me and 1 on 1 private lessons....

Typical, you guys from the big city think you can just pick on us country boys any old way you want.

Well fella coming from someone that fell out of the ugly tree hitting every leaf and branch on his way down I consider that a commendation.

Your kids put a picture of you on the road to keep people from parking there I've been told.

Dont want an ugly one.....perhaps just a little older and mature might be nice.

A guy sent me an email with a cost for this, but I thought to high and he wasn't to bad looking, so he ain't getting the job.

Thing with this type of angle is it will cost a lot.

We have a desire....for a possible project in the near future....to be all able to speak Indo fluently.

So, while in Bali we can pursue this quite easily and I figured hiring someone, be they a teacher or whatever, but hiring them as a full time employee would/should/could work out a lot cheaper and certainly much more flexible for us.

We would be looking at 4 people learning, 2 kids and 2 adults and this way we could do any mix of 1 on 1 or group stuff together. I know that I will need private as I could not concentrate with kids around and if with the missus...well, no chance as I'll probably be yelling at her and she laughing at me.

So this idea popped into my bright little head.

The guy that made contact wanted 400k per day, 5 days per week, 4 hours per day....so thats I think $800 a month for half days work....thought that sounds a tad much....but not really sus on local wages yet.

Only maids at $150 a month.

Actually it will be cheaper than anywhere you go. I personally guarantee.

The people opening the new company are my Balinese family. My wife, who is degree UK educated and her two parents both PhD grads from the UK. They have went further since and now are top Professors in Bali. Apart from that my wife's mother is very high Yogyakarta caste.

Just call the number and talk. No contract just do for fun and see, maybe some freebies.

They personally want to learn from people like you. So as we say no skin off your back.

God knows what they would learn from me....perhaps some good aussie swear words.

But...not sure you understand what I am looking for or mean....getting in any company or business or even individual person to teach us Indo, would have to be more expensive than hiring someone full time....I would think anyway, but I am not privy to Indo wages for someone able to do this as a full time employee...not a contract type engagement.

If I work out what it would cost for something similar here in this country, then I would assume it would have to be a similar situation, just different figures, for Bali.

So, lets say here if I wanted to engage a language teacher, individual that hires themselves out as their business to teach, or a company that has employees and does the same, to come to my home and teach 4 people for 4 hours, 5 days a week for a year.....that would work out at about 300b x 4hrs x 5days x 4 weeks = 24,000b per month.

If I was to hire a private individual with the skills to teach as a full time employee...that should cost about 15,000b per month, but you would have them all day, so flexible hours to suit us and I could even hire them out to teach someone else for a couple hours per day.....so overall, quite a lot cheaper with added advantages.

So, just wondering what similar situation in Bali might cost....dats all.

If you still think your family would suit such a situation, then I shall call, especially if she has a cute sister.

My wife says she would charge IDR60k per hour session for in house teaching. That would equate to 4.8 million every four weeks.

The wages are way way below 15 mill for an Indonesian teacher capable of what you need. Maybe just an advert in the local papers would find someone suitable for your needs.

If you still think your family would suit such a situation, then I shall call, especially if she has a cute sister.

Sorry no sisters.

Yes just have a think on it and if you can’t find someone suitable via advertising or asking locally then give a call.

^ 60k sounds not bad.

Though you mistook my 15,000b to mean idr...'b' means Baht, so for roundabout figures that should be circa 5million IDR per
