Taiwan is a fast moving Asian country with many teaching possibilities opening throughout 2013. We are looking for enthusiastic and dedicated TEFL qualified teachers who are able to teach students of all ages – from 3 years old to adult. As a tropical island Taiwan boasts diverse landscapes and excitement for all who have the fortune to live and work there.
THE SCHOOLS
‘In Region Schools’ in and around Taipei offer the Asian experience with the additional comfort of other foreigners and western style supermarkets, restaurants and bars. There are a lot of experienced teachers in Taipei; therefore new teachers have plenty of support both socially and academically.
‘Out Region Schools’ are spread throughout the island and generally have fewer teachers than the Taipei schools. The majority are over an hour South of Taipei by train, bus or plane. The rural locations provide excellent opportunities for teachers to immerse themselves in Taiwan’s culture and language.
THE TEACHING
