Saudi Arabia
The Middle East is where you will find some of the highest paying jobs
offered for native English speaking teachers. This is not for the faint of
heart; you must be interested in life in the Middle East and well versed in
cultural differences to appreciate the experience. Bayt Recruiting is
a good job reference.
Italy
Cheap travel and fantastically inexpensive gourmet food are just some of
the benefits of living in Italy. There is, however, an annoying amount of red
tape. It is recommended to go through a TESOL online certification program in
which the school you are paying guarantees you job placement. For a list of
recommended programs, visit Transitions Abroad .
Thailand
Thailand is as close as you get to paradise. The American University
Alumni (AUA) Language Center, the oldest and largest language school in
Thailand with almost 400,000 graduates, is a nonprofit school with an excellent
reputation in the country. The AUA is always looking for TESOL teachers.
Japan
Asian nations are practically begging for English teachers and you can
find work via the Internet quickly. Most recruit year round, and provide
successful applicants with visa sponsorship, apartment, partially-paid national
insurance, etc.
The largest schools in Japan are with AEON. You can also find work with JET or The Japan Exchange and Teaching Program.
Russia
Russia
Old stereotypes of an economic system fueled by vodka and general
lawlessness have made native English teachers scarce in Russia. The demand for
teachers far exceeds the supply, making it easy to gain employment with the
benefits of visa support, accommodations and often airfare reimbursement.
The largest schools in the area are BKC International and English First are by far the best places to find employment.
China
With great compensation packages including salary, apartment, visa
sponsorship and sometimes airfare, China is becoming a popular choice for
English teachers. Journey
Eastoffers links to internships, paid
positions and other information.
Mexico
Mexico
If you’re looking for sun and comfort, Mexico is the place to be. In
general, the minimum academic requirement for English teaching positions in
Mexico is a university degree and a TESOL certificate.
Jobs are difficult to find pre-entry, but are plentiful upon arrival.
One option is to look for work in a University. If you have any teaching
experience, this is the way to go. Visit ESL Employment for more details.
South Korea
Offering many perks such as airfare, housing, insurance benefits, decent
salaries and a low cost of living, South Korea offers the ability to travel and
make good money. A good place to start is the job board at Dave’s ESL Cafe. Contracts are usually for 1 year and
a bachelor’s degree is required.
Czech Republic
Chosen for its idyllic location, amazing scenery, high demand and
relative ease of entry, the Czech Republic—specifically Prague—is the
traveler’s dream come true. The Prague
Post, a weekly English language newspaper,
is the best place to look for possibilities from home.
One final note: if you don’t get the salary, housing options and
benefits that you are seeking, politely negotiate, or decline.
Vietnam
One of the hottest destinations right now either for travelling or
teaching. Vietnam offers a great lifestyle for teachers who manage to get the right
job. There many options from language schools to international schools. Most of
them don’t offer accommodation or air tickets, but good schools usually offer a
salary bonus by the end of the contract and health insurance.
Very interesting this topic. It's really important to know about the education of other country.
