Utilities run about NT$1500 per month. During the winter it is much cheaper than this. Teachers who run their air conditioning all day long will, of course, pay more than that. So will teachers who exceed the norm on long-distance phone calls. Long distance rates in Taiwan are reasonable, however. Calls to America, for instance, only cost NT$6 per minute. You may get even better rates if you place your call during non-peak hours (11 p.m.~7 a.m. Taiwan time), or if you use a private long-distance company.
- Gas: NT$600
- Electricity: NT$500-1,000 (with air-conditioner)
- Water: NT$250
- Telephone: NT$500

“Footprints Recruiting provided me with generous support in securing teaching employment in Taiwan. As a new comer to Taichung, Taiwan, Footprints staff were very accommodating in aiding my transition between Aussie living to Taiwanese living! The organization provided advice and support, and offered a position that suited me. Footprints also helped by providing support with travel/visa logistics, which was a great help. There is enough to think about when packing off to a new country, let alone what happens when you arrive. I was picked up at the airport and taken to a school which has great resources. I am pleased to have worked with Footprints.
