Types of employer. Language schools. As the name suggests language schools are private companies set up for the purpose of providing paid language tuition to the general public. They will usually have a number of classrooms, offices and a teaching resource library. Language schools provide tuition to students of all ages, backgrounds and ability levels. Some schools focus on in-house courses while others will subcontract teachers to teach in businesses and or state schools. Most teachers can expect some in school teaching as well as some traveling to provide lessons to companies. Language schools will usually offer a higher salary than government sector schools but the holidays are almost always less generous. Language school timetables frequently involve some early morning teaching plus late afternoon early evening hours, even weekends at some schools as the students are working or studying during normal school hours. State schools. State schools are government controlled funded institutions that provide general education to the public. Most state schools provide language tuition as part of the curriculum and therefore need language teachers. In some countries these schools will use local teachers with a good knowledge of the English language but in other countries there are some opportunities for TEFL qualified native English speaking teachers. Salaries usually aren't as high as in the private sector but timetables are more convenient and holidays are longer.
