Can anyone recommend an English-speaking job in France for a French beginner?
Sadly my French is just not good enough to get the same job as I have in UK.
Also to make it extra tricky, it needs to be at least £21000 to ensure I can pay for my loans each month.
I'm mid 30s, and now have 3 strong university degrees in Physics, Maths and Business (MBA) and after over 12 years in TV production, I'm very versatile, talented and can turn my hand to pretty much anything thrown at me.
Any suggestions?
You will find it difficult to get along in France without a good knowledge of French. Your English skills can be very useful in a variety of fields, including tourism, media, international business, etc. However, you will be expected to speak french reasonably fluently.
Translation and tutoring are two fields that tend to work for people in your situation. I know a few people (who have lived in other countries) that have taken this route.
