Teaching English in the Czech Republic
The Czech Republic is probably the most popular country in the region for teaching English. Jobs teaching English in the Czech Republic are quite easy to obtain, and salaries, while not being of a high level in international terms, offer a reasonably comfortable lifestyle. Any teacher with a TEFL certificate should have little problem in finding a position teaching English in the Czech Republic. Prague is a particularly popular international teaching destination.
The hiring season is year-round in the Czech Republic, especially in Prague. Most English teaching jobs will go to teachers who can apply in person. Language schools in Prague are now demanding all applicants hold a TEFL certificate. Smaller towns in the Czech Republic have many opportunities for qualified English teachers. These locations outside Prague allow teachers to immerse into Czech culture and language.
Wages in small towns are lower than in Prague, but it is pretty much relative to the cost of living. Please note that competition for English teaching jobs in Prague is intense and there are many teachers looking for employment at any one time. However, demand does outstrip supply and teaching English in the Czech Republic is still a teachers market. Having been offered a job, do expect your timetable to be quite small initially, schools like to check out teachers before giving them a full time schedule.
Another good way to find employment teaching English in the Czech Republic is to advertise for private lessons. Many teachers earn a good income by providing lessons to individuals and companies. These types of classes usually come with time and networking, so it is always a good idea to get to know people and offer you services privately.
Good methods for attracting private students in addition to those outlines above are to advertise in local newspapers and business publications, post ads on bulletin boards at the British Council, universities, internet cafes and places where Czech nationals are likely to gather. If you have a business, computers or technical background, your chances of finding private students will increase, as will your chances of landing a contract with a private company.
