    Interview & Docs

    Go to Taiwan

    Once you’ve been formally accepted, you’re ready to go! You’ll be informed to book your flight and, on arrival, taken to your orientation.     

    OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM

    Considered the undiscovered gem of Southeast Asia, Taiwan is a unique experience for any TEFL enthusiast to dive into. Bask in bubbling geothermal springs, launch a lantern into the stars during the Pingxi sky lantern festival, and follow the butterflies (600,000 migrate to southern Taiwan for the winter)! During your vacation weeks, why not hop on a cheap flight to nearby countries like China, Japan and Vietnam? You and your future TEFL friends will create stories that you’ll retell for a lifetime. 

    GET PAID TO TRAVEL & TEACH

    Our interns are paid a competitive salary of between 46,500-60,000 Taiwan Dollars (€1,300-€1680) per month. Our dedicated in-country team can help you arrange accommodation, taking away any possible stresses.

    You choose whether you want your own studio or to share an apartment with fellow TEFL teachers. Aim for a monthly rent budget of around NT$15,000-20,000 (€420-€560), and you’ll be living in style. If you need it, take up the offer of an interest-free loan of up to NT$30,000 €840 for an easy transition into your exciting new life. 

    YOUR TEACHING EXPERIENCE

    Stepping into a classroom in Taiwan, you will learn a thing or two yourself from these students. On average, they have an IQ of 104 (that’s really high!). 

    In-class teaching hours range from 22-26 hours between Monday and Saturday. Be sure to dedicate at least 15 hours per week to lesson planning, grading and extra-curricular activities. Taiwanese students are some of the most hardworking in the world, so you won’t ever have to worry about missing homework. 

    Teach English in Taiwan, and your opportunities range from kindergarten to secondary school, focusing on grammar, written and oral skills. Co-teachers will be on hand to guide you into your new role and support you in delivering practical lessons. You’ll feel yourself grow personally and professionally with development training sessions throughout your 12 months of teaching English in Taiwan. 

    This is also an ideal internship for friends and couples, but early application is vital to ensure availability.
