So, you’ve completed your TEFL/TESOL course and you are ready to embark on a new
chapter in your life. Now – where to start? How do you find that perfect TEFL job that
you’ve been dreaming about?
Timing is very important when looking for a TEFL job. Most vacancies open up around
September or October – and in some cases, in February/March.
Now, it’s time to get all your paperwork and documentation together, such as original
degree certificate, TEFL/TESOL qualification, updated CV/resume & cover letter, valid passport and in some cases – a
police clearance certificate.
Most TEFL teachers find their jobs online and there are many websites which list the available jobs around the world. A useful
starting point is to decide where in the world you wish to teach and whether you meet the
requirements to teach in your chosen country.
Another way of finding a TEFL job is to use an agent. Agents usually work on behalf of schools and are contracted to find TEFL
teachers for a number of schools.
For the more adventurous of us, you can apply on-spec by simply arriving
unannounced on the doorstep of a school. Often, schools who are in need of a teacher or will be needing a teacher in the near future,
will hire someone who is readily available and ready to start at the drop of a hat.
There are countries which run sponsored government programmes such as EPIK &
Talk in South Korea and the JET programme in Japan.
