Job Description
Spending part of your life working in another country can be one of the more fulfilling experiences of your professional life. It is our hope to facilitate that experience for our teachers. However, candidates should be flexible and willing to adapt to another culture. Many of the positions also involve working in elementary schools and some preschools so candidates should be willing to work with children.

Curriculum is provided and in most cases teachers will have flexibility to design their own curriculum if they wish. Most classes are relatively small and last about 40 to 50 minutes. Teachers work an average of about 30 hours per week. Most positions involve a one year contract with the option to renew.
