So today's topic the different types of teaching jobs for Teflon and TESOL certified teachers So basically the different types of schools or workplaces where you can work after you Have completed your Teflon and TESOL training So, yeah, let's jump right in and like I said, I know that some people are Joining right now. They didn't see the beginning.

So that would be great if we could do it like that Alright, then let's jump right in The first type of school that you can work at as a Teflon TESOL certified teacher And that is actually the most common type of school where most teachers will be working out Which is a private language school a private language school and so typically Private language schools they offer the most opportunities for EFL teachers globally There's a lot of private language schools everywhere and Teachers working at this type of school. They also teach Students of all ages so there can be private language schools specifically targeted for at children or at adults It all really depends on the the private school. It varies from school to school. Also some countries will have You know private language schools that are more targeted at children Etc. So yeah, and also Teachers working at private language schools You might be teaching anything from general English lessons to business English even or just Conversation lessons or even trust a test prep Lessons for for example IELTS or Tefl That is also very common Requirements for a position at a private language school Obviously, it varies from school to school. So it is different also in different countries But generally most of them want to see a Tefl or a TESOL certificate and oftentimes a degree Oh It says often masters level. No, I meant a bachelor's level You do not need a master's degree. That is a typo in my slide here. I apologize a four-year degree is typical But they're also private language schools that do not even Require a degree at all. So it really depends on the individual private school Some benefits and like information about vacation. You will have Typically less vacation days compared to like a public school, which we're gonna talk about later but still I think in Korea when I was working at a private language school I had 10 days a year which was five days in the summer and five days in the winter That is pretty typical. But again, it depends on the on the school and also on the country Consider that in Germany, for example, the minimum vacation annual vacation is around 30 days So if you work in a private language school in Germany, for example, you will get 30 days Because that's the the minimum per law So it really depends on where you're going but public schools have more vacation typically than private language schools But private language schools tend to have a higher salary compared to public schools So you'll earn a little bit more than at a public school generally and Then I also put a little a competitiveness bar down here So as you can see the competitiveness is pretty low because there are just so many private language schools everywhere So pretty much if you want to work at a private language school, you can definitely find a job at one It is not very competitive So that is the first one that we're covering and I have personal experience working at a private language school Maybe some of you do also if you have let me know Hey, how's on? Welcome. Good to see you. How are you doing? Yeah, if you have experience working in a private language school I know that some of you might have experience because this is just the most common school that EFL teachers typically work at and You can find private language schools in pretty much any city around the world Really, so if you're not sure how to find a job how to find a teaching job You're Tefal T. So certified and now you're like now what how do I find a job check out my last week's live session That's what I talked about last week how to find a job the different types of resources How to find a teaching job so you find a lot of Inspiration and resources and information there. All right Good, this is the first one then let's move on to School type number two Which is a government-run school or a public school, right? So here typically at this type of school English is taught as a separate subject in government schools So Many of you maybe are not from an English-speaking country So I grew up in Germany. My mom is German. My dad is American But I went to public school in Germany and there all the subjects are in German But we also learn English there and that is the only subject that is taught in English So that's this case for example. So English is taught as a separate subject In government schools only one subject typically there are different schools, you know that might offer other Subjects taught in English as well and here working if you're working for a public school in government-run school You will be mostly responsible for teaching speaking and listening skills But some also are responsible for more like reading or also grammar, of course It again depends on the public school, but a lot of times it is more speaking and listening This is especially the case if you're working for for example the JET program in Japan Or the EPIC program in Korea, which are both government-run Programs that place foreign teachers into public schools there and so at those positions typically there will be Native like Korean or Japanese English teachers at the school who teach English in their language and explain the grammar and stuff in Korean or Japanese to the students and then you would come in as a native speaker and Take care of the speaking part the conversation part listening part So you're usually working with another Teacher from that country like together And yeah, but like I said some schools They also run programs where English is used to teach other subjects like math or history it really depends on the school and I think it's also Something that we've seen because English is just getting more and more important So more public schools are kind of changing and offering more stuff in English as well The requirements are typically a TEFL certificate and a four-year University degree again, this depends from country to country in school school, but this is what we see as the standard pretty much around the world In terms of benefits and vacation you'll see that at public schools You'll have you tend to have longer vacations compared to a public private school Because yeah school vacations typically are longer You know some have like in Germany. We have six weeks summer vacations That would also be something that the teacher would get obviously so they are much longer than private language institutes however If you're working at a public school, you might only be the only foreign teacher there Something to consider and you also have fewer teaching hours compared to private language schools typically Competitiveness still not so bad Compared to private language institutes a little bit more competitive Just because some countries don't have the funds or the Financial support from the government to hire foreign teachers into every public school So only a handful of public schools would be able to hire foreign teachers So that's why it is a little bit more competitive, but also not too bad so as long as you have a TEFL certificate and For your university degree in most cases you are good All right, I have a question here from foul zone. I'm gonna look at He says Linda where I come from we have three phases at university License three years plus master's two years then doctoral formation starting from three years plus So my question is how are they called there? So I guess the license three years? Oh, it's a little bit different Okay, so typically a four-year degree is a bachelor's degree So I guess that would be kind of what your license is Then there's also associates associates, which is two years So the associates degrees two years and then the bachelor's degrees four years And I think master's is also two years. There might be some masters that are three years. I am not sure Depends and then yeah doctoral the PhD level Depends I think what kind of doctorate you're getting But typically yeah university degree is a bachelor's degree a four-year degree Typically All right, good, so we covered private language schools and We covered government-run schools. Okay, sure. I'm gonna write it down. So bachelors. That's the only one That's different bachelor's degree four years. I'm just gonna write it in the comments for you Here a bachelor's degree This seems to be What your license isn't and the other one was the associates degree Which is two years? All of them, but the other ones are the same the masters is the same the PhD is the same So only those two are different This one and this one Okay, all right good so this was the government-run school the public school Let's have a look at our third type of school where EFL teachers can work at which is a private school So now you're gonna know you're gonna say like we had we just covered that so the first one we covered was a private language school Or a private language Institute Then we had the public school the government-run schools and now private schools Which is basically the same as the public school But not government-run But from a company run by a company So they were typically also like a private elementary school a private middle school a private high school That's what that means So they generally have the same curriculum as the government schools because they need to be on the same level However, the difference is that typically they have like a fully fully bilingual Subjects in English and the students native language So there's more English involved typically in these private schools not always but typically and Some even have all instruction in English except for native language lessons so There's also for example a private elementary school here in my city where I live in in Korea and I used to work at a English speaking kindergarten and so kindergarten was in the morning and then in the afternoon we got We got elementary Classes and most of those kids coming to our English private school were actually kids from This private elementary school that was also pretty much bilingual in English. That's why That's a little bit sort of the difference Requirements for that again is a TEFL certificate and a four-year bachelor's degree pretty much and so It depends though from school to school. I always have to say that, you know Every school has their own requirements for their teachers. It's not always the same But these are typically the requirements that we see We deal with a lot of different Job offers every day. So that's typically what we see in there Benefits and vacations also typically longer vacations per year because they also tend to have the same amount of vacation like a public school Which is usually a lot There however because they have more English instruction more English subjects You will have more teaching hours typically But also higher salaries Compared to public school because usually public schools are free, right and private schools cost money so You also tend to get a higher salary working at a private school For example competitiveness is a little bit higher because there are not that many Private schools. There are many of course, but compared to public schools or a private language schools There aren't as many private elementary schools private middle schools, etc So that's why the competitiveness is a little bit higher here All right, other question here from Fao Zan. He says I completed License master and I have six years in doctoral Formation. I wish I completed soon. Wow. You have a lot of Training a lot of education. That's great. So you're definitely qualified. So don't worry I wish you good luck with that What what's your major? Is it English? Very cool nice All right. Good. So we covered three types of schools. We still have many to cover so um Let's jump in as a reminder. We had private language schools government run public schools private schools now and now let's look at kindergarten's Kindergartens and I worked at a English speaking kindergarten So that is actually very common as well to work at a kindergarten Parents around the world. They really want to expose their children to foreign languages as early as possible Especially in places like Asia So um, you'll see that there's a high demand for English teachers in kindergartens around the world There are many many kindergartens English speaking kindergartens or kindergartens that have English That offer English um education So that's why this is very very common Requirements are kind of the same. You'll need a teflor t-sol certificate And typically a bachelor's degree a four-year university degree But some also hire people who have no degree. So it's not always required You will have fewer vacations here because kindergartens tend to not have public long vacations So you will have less compared to a public school or private elementary middle high school And uh, there will be more play time involved usually so the curriculums at kindergartens usually are more Play like game based play based So there's a lot of play time involved a lot of like arts and crafts that you do with the kids and games So it's a different kind of teaching Compared to the, you know, you're in a classroom and you're teaching grammar It's a different kind of teaching which is also very fun, but it's not for everyone. So it's you need to consider that um However, you also get higher salaries typically here than a public school so But there's also a little bit more work involved and you know, the younger the students The more like additional tasks you have to do typically It's not only teaching them english But you also need to teach them other things like manners and how to be good humans basically So There's a lot of that And yeah competitiveness i forgot to mention also very low Because there are so many kindergartens. It's a huge demand So if you like working with young children And you're not the kind of teacher who just wants to use a textbook all the time and teach grammar Patterns then maybe teaching at a kindergarten would be a great um Thing for you All right, so we have fouls on asking if I complete my phd. Would you hook me up with a teaching job there? Where in korea? Where do you want to teach? Sure as an ittt course graduate you have access to lifetime job support So we will help you to find a job wherever you want. That is part of our Deal when you get a course with us Hey, j j's asking is the praxis esol e-sol certificate equivalent to to a t-sol certificate Do you mean the in class in class versus online certificate? So yeah, typically nowadays The in class certificate and the online certificate are Accepted just the same. They're the same level Especially now after even the pandemic everything is online. So Employers really don't make a difference anymore. There are some that do prefer in class, but it's rare Pretty much nowadays everyone has an online certificate And the good thing about the certificate is that it doesn't say Online tefl or online t-sol on the certificate So it just says the hours for example 120 hour tefl certificate It doesn't say that it comes from an online course. So Yeah Okay, so that was the kindergartens again very common lots of demand Low competitiveness and it's just a fun work environment as well working with younger children Let's have a look At the next one Yep universities. So you'll also see a couple of Um job offers looking for tefl t-sol certified instructors teachers for universities Many university students They are actually required to study English as part of their degree And certain courses are often offered entirely in English Targeted at international students and also foreign language majors Also here in the city where I live in we have an international university Which also hires foreign teachers. So I know some people who are working there as English teachers Um, and typically the requirements that we see for those kinds of positions are a little bit higher than the other schools So still you will need a tefl or a t-sol certificate And then a degree often a master's degree not always But certainly it's preferred having a master's degree And then also preferred if it's in English. So it can be in English in English literature T-sol tefl anything that is definitely bonus, but it's not 100 percent required Again, it depends on the individual university. What kind of person they want to hire And their requirements and also we see that usually university universities want Or expect several years of teaching experience prior. So, um This is something that you could go for after you've already taught a couple of years And then you're like, okay, I'm looking for that next step I want to work for a university now and then you could um, you're qualified to do so Benefits and vacations. Um, as you might imagine, you'll have long vacations every year Semester breaks are pretty long typically and you'll have A lot of vacation You also typically have few teaching hours from the university teachers that I know They really don't have a lot of teaching hours per week. It's pretty chill Um, and the salaries obviously are higher compared to public or private schools So you'll earn more have not that much work and a lot of vacations So as you can imagine, these jobs are very competitive. That's why the competitive meter down here is pretty high um Also because in those kinds of positions are not as common You cannot find them as much online. You can find them but compared to private language schools. They are not um that abundant And if they are the competitiveness is quite high. So, uh, make sure you do have A couple of years experience. You do have A masters in t-sol that would be um, a huge plus for getting a university job Also, I know that in korea, for example, um, it varies also the location So if you're targeting like targeting a smaller city with the university, your chances are higher with, um, you know Fewer Requirements, then if you want to go to like a university in Seoul, obviously, so also keep that in mind Okay, yeah, so that was universities um Yeah, let me move on to the next one as always if you have any questions throughout this life If you didn't understand anything if you want me to repeat something Feel free to just add a comment. I would appreciate that Good next up we have international schools so The curriculum at international schools is fully in english most of the time um, and some international schools, they also have a specific EFL English as a foreign language department Where students are sort of brought up to speed before they enter mainstream classes So, um, if somebody a student wants to join wants to attend this international school But their English level isn't up to par yet They would then go to this EFL department Maybe for six months or a year and get special Teflor t-sol training to be brought up to the same level as the other students so that he then or they can then Join mainstream classes afterwards So there's opportunities in both departments. You could work in the regular department different subjects like a regular school typically, um, you would see like there'd be like an international school That's based off of like an american curriculum or canadian or british So it really depends on the international school Um, and then they would also have the individual EFL departments in their school oftentimes Requirements are pretty high for international schools So you would get a tefl or a t-sol certificate. You would also need a degree Oftentimes it is a master's degree also having to do with Either the subject that you want to teach Or english tefl t-sol Um, again years of experience is preferred usually required And oftentimes they also want you to have a teaching license from your home country So for example, if this if it's an american international school They will want you to have an american teaching license to be an actual teacher From america to work there because their Curriculum is based off the american school model. So they want you to be aware and familiar with that So some international schools do that But there are also some other ones that have fewer less requirements that are not that strict So it really depends on the school and their own model Benefits in vacation. Yeah, typically they you would also get long vacations every year And the salaries here at international schools is usually the highest Compared to all the other schools we covered so far. So that's why Working for an international school is super super competitive. You can see the competitiveness bar down there It's red. It's super competitive. It's not really easy to get in It's not impossible It's just Yeah, they have expectations and there are not that many international schools around that are actively always hiring So that's why it's very competitive and because the the pay is so good the prestige Um, the vacations Typically are very good. So that's why everybody kind of wants to Work there and this is something that you can pursue after a couple of years of teaching english abroad You're like, okay, and now i'm gonna get my masters Um And then this is something I want to pursue then maybe you also would need to go back get your teaching license And then you can work at any international school around the world Yeah, so yeah, that's international schools Let's have a look at what is next So that was all the different types of schools now we're gonna look at Other sort of workplaces and this is working directly for companies So some companies they actually hire their own english teachers to develop courses and teach um english classes to their staff Um, and most of these jobs they also entail additional responsibilities outside of teaching english So because you are kind of also an employee at the company You would give english classes to the native people the local employees To brush up their english to teach them english for business purposes But then you would also have additional responsibilities like maybe, you know Interpreting when there's business meetings or you would have to go to Um business trips to other companies act as a yeah mediator interpreter Insulator, so these can all be different. Um additional responsibilities That you might have It really depends on the company, of course on the contract what they also need at the company So but that's typically what we see Requirements really depend on the company. Um, but typically it would be a tefl certificate a t-sol certificate Um, a university degree in most cases and then also usually work experience in the field So if the company you're working for is like, uh for example, for example A tech company, I don't know Then they would also prefer somebody who also worked in this field So that you know what you're talking about, right? And you know how to best prep your colleagues and co-workers in that field and what kind of special Vocabulary in english language they need to know for this job. So yeah Yeah, juliana says that is a cool job. It is a cool job. It's kind of it's really cool. I agree I would like to do that So benefits and vacation Um, yeah, I mean with vacation you would obviously be employed like the other employees. So you would have the same Like vacation days as the other people so it depends on the country that you work in what they have um This type of job also usually usually gets a higher pay um compared to like Uh, private language schools for example because you also have these additional jobs Um, you also have fewer teaching hours and like I said the other additional responsibilities So this kind of job is very um Very varied you do a lot of different things. Um, you will work with a lot of different people And um, this could be a great alternative for people who are kind of sick of teaching I know after a couple years many people feel this way. They don't want to teach anymore So maybe then they can transition to something like this Um competitiveness is relatively high. Um, I would say medium um, this type of work Depends on also the country Um, I know that this is very common for example in latin america mexico Where they have close ties with the us There this type of job is very common In asia you can also find this. I actually know someone who is doing this. I think for samsung in soul One of those I think was samsung Um, but it's not that common Depends so um, yeah, that's why competitiveness is a little bit on the higher side Because these kinds of jobs are not as abundant as working for a language school for example But they are out there and that's why I recommend you checking out last week's live session Where I talked about the different resources on finding teaching jobs because this kind of position would require Looking into a little bit more of the resources like linked in or facebook groups that I talked about And then you can find these advertised jobs there Okay, good. Let's have a look at the next one, which is Private classes. So this is basically private tutoring. So the teacher finds their own students to teach You can set the price of your classes and you can teach at home The student's home a public space like a cafe a library um, anywhere And requirements obviously they are up to the students So the student makes the decision if they hire you as their private tutor or not. So it depends obviously the more uh The more um credentials background you have the better. So tefl tea soul always great to have experience um, that's great for having private students Benefits vacation is really up to you So you define how much you work how much you earn how much you charge for your tutoring And I put down here, um visa regulations So typically this is something uh that you can only do either in your home country or when you already have a Long term kind of resident visa for a different country, right? So I live in south korea. I have a long term Like residence permit. So then I can do this kind of job However, if you're only like on a tourist visa then technically it would be illegal to do so So you do check that out what the regulations are um What I know from my own experience a lot of people are doing this that are in my position. They you know live abroad um, they have a teaching background now they have this long term visa So, um, they take on a lot of different jobs, right? So maybe we teach they teach part-time at like a kindergarten And then the other half of the time they have private students because their visa allows them to do that Obviously, this is not going to fit for everybody But maybe um, you can you know start doing that in your home country as well Teach another language doesn't have to be english. Maybe I know juliana here She um teaches chinese So, um, that's also somewhere to start and this is also teaching experience, right? So when somebody talks about teaching experience, it doesn't only have to be english, right? You also get teaching experience from teaching other things other languages instruments Hobbies doesn't matter All of that is teaching experience which can help you later on then for finding other teaching positions basically And here competitiveness bar. I put very low because literally you can find private students anywhere Um, you can put that up on your local Like community board or wherever you are word of mouth Spread the word that you're looking for Someone to tutor and you will usually always find somebody So this is another option that a lot of people are doing also to supplement their income if you work at like a A public school for example, uh, where the pay is lower than a private school Um, and you have less teaching hours. You have more vacation. You have more free time A lot of teachers are then doing some private tutoring in their free time for example All right, I think there's there's two more I believe let's have a look Yes volunteer teach is next Okay So volunteering is a great way to gain experience while studying or also before looking for paid positions To get experience right and also to experience something really fun and rewarding So this can be anything from teaching new arrivals or like refugees in your home country To teaching monks for example in nepalese monasteries So there's really a wide range of volunteer teaching opportunities around the world especially in Latin America in Africa in the Middle East in Asia literally all around the world you can find these kinds of positions um The requirements they're often literally no requirements because people are just happy that you want to do this And they take anyone they can get who really wants to help the cause But obviously if you want to volunteer teach English, you need to be at least fluent in English Um benefits vacation. I mean as you can expect Typically, there's no pay and the contract that you usually have is for a certain period of time Which is also great because most teaching contracts are actually for a year or even two years So if you don't have that much time or you don't want to commit to that much time Volunteer teaching can be a great opportunity to go abroad and teach for just a short amount of time So there's volunteer opportunities for like a for a month. Sorry four weeks Six weeks eight weeks three months. Those are like short term teaching opportunities You can typically find with volunteer teaching However, good and reliable volunteer programs. They often cost money Um, so it's well, you don't get paid But usually you want to go through a good program and they do cost money because they place you there They give you a room to stay in etc. So it's not actually free most of the time Um, you have to pay a little bit of money for that for this experience But it can be really rewarding. You can gain valuable experience not only teaching experience But also for you personally So I think that's a great thing for somebody to do for certain Competitiveness again very low because there are so many programs so many people who need You know this type of assistance So if you really want to go abroad to volunteer teach you always find somewhere So competitiveness is very low Okay, I think we are yeah, I think this is the last one now so teaching online Obviously also an opportunity something to think about Um, especially these days, um, and we did many previous live sessions specifically about teaching English online Because it just become There's been a huge boom basically Um, yeah the demand for online English teaching has been booming in the past years, especially um Due to covet and not only but more and more people are having access to internet Um in remote locations, but they don't have access to native English teachers, for example So with the internet they now have access to these teachers and that has been creating this boom Teaching online allows you to work from anywhere and at any time you want So this is also something that's super attractive for people They can make their own hours. They own schedule. They can travel while still working on the go So this is something that's very, um Attractive for many people requirements are typically the same now Like for teaching abroad. So a teflori t-cell certificate A four-year degree typically even sometimes teaching experience always preferred always a plus Um, so that's great with benefits and vacation All up to you you define how much you work When you take a break how much you charge how much you earn typically you can also define that So, um, this is really up to you You have all the power in your hands with teaching online basically If you want to learn more about teaching English online Go ahead and check out our previous our playlist Full full of previous um live sessions Again, lots of information specifically about teaching English online not only from me, but also my colleague lisa Who is a russian english teacher and she taught english in china and now she's back in russia and she's been teaching english online She has a very successful teaching english online Set up i would say she has a lot of experience lots of students She's yeah, she's great and she shares a lot of that stuff here on our platform.
