Hi,
I am a Singaporean, currently considering moving to Paris in order to teach. I am just wondering what are the things i need to consider or take note of getting a job and to plan ahead in order to make my transition from Singapore to Paris a smooth one. Looking forward to some great advice!

most importantly prepare your French, because English is not too important when you live in France especially if you want to work here

Hi there!

What kind of visa will you be coming in?

I'd also recommend trying to find work BEFORE you聽 arrive as it can take quite a while and being workless in Paris if you don't have the funds can be especially discouraging.
