TEFL Job Guidance Process

We offer TEFL courses year-round because English language schools offer jobs year-round so no matter what course date you choose there will be plenty of job options when you finish.

It's up to you on where you would like to teach so you can begin exploring your options with us before, during and after the course.  We'll ask you to list where you are interested in teaching. Then our staff will begin searching for current information on TEFL job openings as well as language school contacts for the countries you listed. These will be posted in our TEFL job binders so that you will have access to them and can start contacting the schools about their teaching English abroad positions. If you are interested in staying in Prague we have a job workshop on the last day of the course where a few employers from schools come to present their TEFL job openings.

TEFL Worldwide has TEFL job books in the office that contain information on the average salaries and specific country information for selected regions. You will be given links for websites which have listings of TEFL job openings. You’ll find numerous opportunities for teaching English abroad.

As a part of the TEFL job guidance we will also assist you with writing a cover letter and CV. In addition we will provide you with a letter of reference upon completion of the course.

We understand that you might not be completely certain about where you would like to teach or that you may change your mind, so our staff is available for any questions that you have. All you have to do is ask. Job guidance is offered for a lifetime so you can contact us anytime when you are ready to experience a different country. Many of our graduates have worked in three or more countries.

We recommend that you apply to jobs in 2 or 3 different countries to expand your options. We can't guarantee that there will be a job opening in a specific country right when you graduate. Many students start the job search as soon as they arrive.

"All students can learn and succeed, but not in the same day, in the same way." William G. Spady

Teaching English in Prague

If you wish to work in the Czech Republic, there is a TEFL job workshop at the end of the course where a few directors of studies from Prague offer brief presentations about their school including details of teaching hours, syllabus, teaching resources, salary, and other related benefits. This gives you the chance to ask questions in advance, arrange interviews with a few schools and meet potential employers face-to-face. Positions are available in different parts of the Czech Republic so you can work in the larger cities or some of the smaller towns. There are over 100 language schools in Prague alone. TEFL jobs can also be found outside of Prague. Working outside of Prague is a benefit too because you can engage yourself in the culture more and learn the language much faster.

In addition to the TEFL(TESOL) course and TEFL job guidance we provide housing assistance for those planning on staying in Prague. We can put you in touch with numerous real estate agents and point you in the right direction on where to find available housing from links on the internet, postings at our school and in cafes throughout Prague. We also post current apartments and rooms for rent.


TEFL/TESOL Salaries in Prague

With a full time schedule you can expect to make about 17,000kc/month to 19,000kc/month after tax. That will cover your living expenses and give you extra money for entertainment and light travel. Again you’ll have enough time to pick up some extra private teaching hours and boost your earnings to 20,000 Kc +. You can live a very comfortable lifestyle on a full-time teaching salary.

The living expenses in Prague are lower than that in North America and Western Europe. Should you decide to stay here after the course you can easily find a private room in a furnished and shared apartment for around 6500 Kc to 8500 Kc/month. Utilities included. The majority of teachers in Prague choose to share an apartment while teaching in order to cut back on their living expenses. Should you choose to rent a private studio or one bedroom flat you can find something for around 8500 Kc to 15,000 Kc depending on your preferences, location, size, furnishings, etc.

Prague is an excellent city to take your TEFL course and to begin your TEFL job search.

Teaching in a Native English Speaking Country

TEFL is more focused on teaching in a non-native English speaking country, although we have had graduates go on to teach in the US, UK, and Australia. Please note that our job guidance is more focused on teaching in non-native English speaking countries but we'll do our best to help you find a job in a native English speaking country if you are interested. There are less job offers for these countries, and in the UK many language schools prefer to hire teachers who meet the qualifications set by the British Council.
