Paid Teaching Work | Volunteer Projects
Due to the worldwide appetite for learning English, it is possible for native English speakers to find teaching placements all over the world, and nowhere is this more prevelant than in the Far East. It's also one of the few places where people with very little experience can find paid work in this area. If you are looking for paid English teaching placements in the Far East the most common locations are China and Korea. With a lot of job offers around we urge you to use a reputable company when taking one of these placements, to ensure the accommodation and job is everything you expect it to be.
