How to Get a Teaching Job Overseas

LEARN THE SECRETS TO LANDING A TEACHING JOB OVERSEAS

LIVE AND WORK ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD

Looking to get a teaching job overseas but not sure where to start? Worried it might be hard? It’s easier than you think…even if you’ve never taught a day in your life. While getting a teaching job might seem like a time consuming and stressful task, it’s actually very easy once you know just a few tips and tricks (tips and tricks I learned through teaching throughout Asia). This book will help you eliminate your stress, fear, and anxiety about finding a job. It will save you weeks of online research and give you the most accurate and updated information you need to land your dream job.

There is so much information on the internet about teaching overseas and most of it is a ploy from schools just trying to recruit you to sign up for one of their TEFL courses. Thus, a lot of those sources cannot be trusted. This book is not like that. Matt’s book provided me with so much practical information and answered many of my questions. It was a great investment. – Bara Katz

Deciding to teach English overseas can be exhilarating but most people feel overwhelmed. There is a lot to think about:

  • What are the best countries to work in?
  • How do I actually teach English as a foreign language?
  • Will I be able to find work easily?
  • How much can I expect to earn?
  • What exactly is a TEFL and do I really need one?
  • Will I fit in? Will I make friends with the other teachers?
  • What is life like in my potential country?
  • How do I find a good employer who won’t cheat me?

When I started teaching English 5 years ago, I had these same concerns and questions. I know exactly how stressful and confusing the process can seem. Like you, I didn’t really know where to begin. I was lost and spent days searching the Internet, trying to find up-to-date, honest, and accurate information.

I rarely found any, which only added to my stress.

It was only through trail and error and talking to other teachers that I found the information I was looking for. As I began blogging and talking about my own years being a teacher, readers kept asking me questions about how they could find a job, where they could find resources, and what they needed to do too. I wrote this book for beginners with no experience as a one stop shop to save people time, energy, and frustration so they can learn how simple the process really is and be teaching sooner. If that describes what you want, you’re in the right place.

MANY PEOPLE HAVE USED MY TECHNIQUES TO LAND TEACHING JOBS ALL OVER THE WORLD:

I loved the simplicity of the book. Very easy to work around, all the necessary information is in one place and goes into just the right amount of detail. Now I’m in the middle of a part time CELTA course, looking at going to Korea for a year before returning closer to home in Spain. – Scott

I enjoyed how I could isolate which country I wanted to teach and find specifics to that country. I enjoyed how the book broke down each destination. The book got me pumped to teach overseas and soon after I bought the book, I got my TESL certificate, found a recruiter and now I am just a few days away from teaching in Korea!! Because of this book! – Charles Lewis

I bought your book and found that the info was straightforward, comprehensive, and confirmed all the other research I have been doing. I wish I’d bought your book first since it explained the differences in the various certification programs (I spent hours just getting info on that!) and what each country will require for work visas. You also helped with my questions about general salaries paid, cost of living and what time of the year is better for finding a job. – Anita Oliver

One of the greatest things I did was teach English while overseas. That experience let me learn about a new culture, a new language, make international friends, and break out of my routine. Most importantly though, teaching showed me that if I can get up and move to a new culture and survive, I could do anything I put my mind to. Purchasing this book will put everything in perspective and give you the tools you need to travel the world and work overseas by doing something you do everyday: speak English.

Your book was very detailed, and I especially liked the interviews you had with current and former teachers and the information you compiled regarding visa and document requirements. The paperwork/visa aspect of it all is a bit daunting, so it was nice to see it all laid out so well. I know we will be consulting the book several times over the next few months as we get ready for our TESOL course and start thinking about where we want to go. – Brandi

I purchased your book “How to Teach English Overseas” initially because of all the reviews I read. The book was EXTREMELY informative in guiding my decision to proceed in that field. I’d like to work, travel, and write similar to what you do everyday! I am in the process of getting my bachelor degree in English, I only have a year left and after reading your book it motivated me even more to complete my studies so that I have the edge I need when looking for work overseas. The book had all the useful information I needed to make an informed decision and answered many questions I had. – Leah Scott

My favorite part of the book is the crapload of information about teaching in different countries. It’s damned near impossible to find all this stuff rounded up in one location. There’s nobody trying to sell you a job, it’s all honest, raw information. Matt’s no novice either, he’s taught in both Taiwan and Thailand, so he knows what he’s talking about. – Candice Walsh
