Teaching English Online is an amazing opportunity, simply in and of itself. Working remotely can mean home comforts, the ability to strike a really ideal work/life balance, meeting care needs while earning a wage, and so much more. It can even mean travelling while you work, as a digital nomad, an undoubtedly exciting endeavour for […]

Can you feel the mud under your wellies? The sounds of revelry and anticipation across fields of eager music fans, the smell of myriad food stands and beer (hopefully nothing else)… yes, it’s the summer, and that can only mean one thing: music festivals. Festivals are, after all, a great way of seeing the world. […]

So often, we talk of “underrated” TEFL destinations. For one, Latin America still feels like it isn’t highly rated enough for new, inexperienced teachers who want to absorb different cultures. West Asia, particularly countries like Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, are massively under-tapped areas of potential for TEFL educators. The Caribbean, despite its many attractions, still […]

It’s a genuinely fascinating and exciting time to be digitally nomadic right now. If you have the wherewithal to become self-employed, and the sense of adventure to work around the world, the timing couldn’t be better. The world is truly opening up again. Travel restrictions owing to the pandemic are no longer, and governments around […]

When perennial Europa League winners Sevilla take on José Mourinho’s AS Roma in Budapest on the 31st of May, it’s sure to be a clash that’ll fascinate supporters and neutrals alike. With both the Andalusians and Romans arguably under-performing domestically but doing the business on the European front, it may not be the Champions League, […]

When it comes to your first experience of finding work in the TEFL world, there are a number of options available. For example, workplace internships can be a great way of testing the waters for a career in teaching, either working as an ETA (English Teaching Assistant) or teaching small classes of children under supervision.

We’re not exactly immune to a good song and dance here at The TEFL Org, and after some heated debates between our colleagues in Scotland and those in the north of England, some of us had to eat some sour grapes – because the Eurovision Song Contest is coming to Liverpool. Yes, the world’s eyes […]

We’re big fans of Mexico at The TEFL Org. While Latin America doesn’t necessarily rank as highly as nations like Japan, Spain or South Korea on the bucket lists of TEFL teachers, it’s hard to see what wouldn’t be tempting about setting up in Mexico.
