Living and Teaching English in Cambodia - Habits, Customs & Curiosities

Unlike its neighbor, Thailand, Cambodia does not have a particularly long history as a tourist destination or as a location for teaching English abroad.

However, that has started to change as huge improvements in infrastructure and a countrywide drive to raise the standard of English have seen a large increase in opportunities for teachers of all nationalities.

The fact that Cambodia doesn’t have an overcrowded market for foreign teachers is certainly part of its appeal, as is the stunning natural beauty that ranges from rainforest covered mountains to white sand beaches.

The country’s vibrant cities also offer all manner of entertainment to enjoy in your free time.
