Does the government consider you a native English speaker?

Yes you are, don’t let a forum make you think otherwise. :wink: But you should know that it’s quite uncommon for Filipinos to come here as an English teacher. Most of us white-collar workers belong in the corporate world, or hold managerial positions in factories.

But, I would strongly recommend that you follow the exact rules that both the Philippines and Taiwan have when it comes to direct-hiring Filipinos. You can PM me if you have questions that might be too confidential to share here. :slight_smile:
