    Opinions about Odyssey International School? Hello friends, Does anybody have any first-hand experience with the Odyssey International School for kids? Very specifically, does the International Baccalaureate helps if kids need to return to their home country? Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

      Very good. Lots of quality long term teachers. Great campus and growing in the right way. As a teacher (university) one of the best you can find in Central V.

    2. mac_consultant

      From personal experience, Odyssey is a very good school. The IB is recognized internationally and I think they will be fully IB accredited later this year.

  2. career_expat

    If you come from a western nation, a school of 12k or so a year is a disservice to your child. Also, your math doesn’t math. You don’t plan for today’s cost you plan for what you need decades later. Will 3400 cut it in 20 years or more? With inflation and cost of living changes, I doubt it. If you want global insurance, that will run around 800 a month for 3 people. Local insurance covers nothing for kids when it comes to vaccines. I looked into and makes 0 sense to have it I have fund all the regular vaccines and checkups. Also, I am not thrilled with level of service at the hospitals here as well. We actually fly to Bangkok 4-5 times a year and do regular checkups there and only use hospitals here for emergencies.

    Why Da Nang private / international schools are so few and so expensive? Singapore International School Danang - $22k APU American International School Da Nang - $20k Odyssey International School - $10k

    1. PerpetualPusher

      So expensive compared to what? It is the norm that private schools are a lot more expensive than public schools anywhere. These schools have higher costs as well, obviously paying more on salary for qualified foreign teachers and international accreditation. As other users have pointed out, these are typical rates for private international schools. So few in Da Nang because fewer people here can pay that price. Bigger cities like Hanoi HCMC Bangkok have more options but prices aren't cheaper either.

    International schools arent cheap. 30k per year average so 400k gunna be 300k real fast. I always say: Women: hygiene products because all countries differ and some women are particular. Clothing but buy summer clothes, unless tou dont mind wearing cheap clothes Men: shoe size if tou are anything above a 9. If you ahve any addiction outside of cigarettes you need to think that through Deending on pc desired you may want a good video card Vitamins that you have preference on.. supplements still suck here

    >want to have a baby over there A decent school would be more than your bfs entire income. International schooling in vn isn't cheap. My in laws send one kid to BIS about 75 million a month. And the other to kid to a Singaporean school about 30 million a month. You don't know what you're doing.
