PRACTICAL TIPS AND ADVICE
RESEARCH AND PLANNING
Research and planning
Short-list countries where you would like to teach.
Be realistic and pragmatic by keeping the list to three countries or less.
Contact the consulates or embassies of these countries to find out how you will be able to work there.
Their answers will indicate what type of entry visa you will need (if any) and if your choice is working on the books or off the books.
Research and planning
If the embassy or consulate tells you that you can apply for a work permit if you have an apostilled certificate, you must attend a four week residential course.
The TEFL or TESOL certificate must be from an examination board or university.
Only certificates from examination boards and universities (public domain) can be apostilled.
Research and planning
NEVER get consular or embassy information from a third party.
Consular information changes regularly.
It is impossible for a third party to maintain 196 countries immigration and labour laws.
ALWAYS get information directly from a consulate or embassy.
Research and planning
Research flight costs, accommodation and cost of living for each country.
Research current job offers to get an idea of what is available and what certification is acceptable.
Do not compare your potential earnings to your home currency.
Always view earnings by its local spending power.
Choose a course that will give you the required certification.
Research and planning
Examination board and university issued certificates from four week residential TEFL and TESOL courses are the most widely accepted.
They open the most doors to jobs.
All other certificates from other “accredited” courses through to online only courses gradually close the door on paid job opportunities.
The question you have to answer is, do you want a paid job quickly?
