I’m currently finishing my master degree in Multilingual Professional Communication at the University of Antwerp. To achieve this degree I have to write a dissertation. I’m very interested in other cultures, their habits, way of life, language… So I decided to write my dissertation about an interesting culture, Taiwan. The more exact subject of my master dissertation is “the intercultural aspects in the communication with the Taiwanese”. For my investigation I’m using quotes from blogs from people who live and work or study in Taiwan. I was reading your blog and I was wandering if I could use some of your stories about your experiences in Taiwan. I promise to not abuse this information. Sincerely, Charlotte Van Parys Dear madam, dear sir,

Matt, if you would please read into the other comments and under FAQ's for your questions, that would be great! If you still have any questions afterwards, I'd be happy to help. Haha, thanks Huanger!

She already answered most of your questions. Also, I don't know how strict Tina is about being upright and legal, but you will need a work visa in order to work at the legit schools. Some of the smaller chains (like Happy Marian) and kindergarten-style schools may turn the other way, however, and pay cash. you should check out some of Tina’s previous responses to other bloggers.

I wondered if you would be able to give my wife and I some info about how to go about doing job searches for teaching english in Taipei. I’d really appreciate any advice or help you could give us in our plans. We are just starting our job search and didn’t know if you had any websites or schools we should contact or any that we should maybe avoid?? Your blog is great and I hope I get to write one if we do end up finding something over there. Thanks so much.
