Teach English Abroad
Top Jobs, TEFL
Certifications, Guides and Stories
As over 1.5 billion people
in the world continue their insatiable rush to
learn English, the lingua franca of international
business, technical jobs, diplomacy, and higher
education, most job opportunities abroad continue
to be for those who teach English. Your primary
credential is simply being a native speaker of
the English language, but a bachelor's degree is
often required. Some formal training, such as a
TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification,
is almost always a plus or a prerequisite, especially
if you have no previous experience as a teacher.
Your ability to teach English as a second language
(TESL) may be all you need to obtain a job and
a work permit in various countries across Asia
and Latin America, and many other ESL jobs exist
in desirable locations worldwide.
