FINDING WORK IN AMERICA

Apply for teaching jobs in Central & North America.

On completion of your UK-TEFL course, you will be able to apply for jobs all around the globe.

Although there are good English teaching jobs in virtually every country, some are better than others as destinations for first time English teachers. There are a large number of English teaching positions in the USA and in Canada but the difficulty in getting a suitable work permit strikes both these countries from our list of recommended countries.

Here at UK-TEFL, we would recommend Mexico and Costa Rica - both very popular destinations for first time English teachers.

Good opportunities pretty much wherever you go but in San Jose, in particular. Expect to be paid up to £500 per month but remember, the cost of living is VERY low.

This is, traditionally, one of the best countries for the first-time EFL teacher. English teaching is a large industry in Mexico, particularly in Mexico City, so you will find good jobs and relatively good salaries. Expect salaries from £600 per month, including accommodation.
