About Moscow:
This modern, vibrant city of more than 10 million inhabitants is the political, cultural and historic capital of Russia. Whether it is your first visit or a return trip, living and working here can be uniquely memorable.

Teaching Here:
Most of our students are highly motivated young adults, typically 22-27 years old, who study English for work, career or travel. Teaching assignments are off-site for corporate clients as well as in classrooms. As our clientele grows, so does our staff. To accomplish this expansion, we need additional native-English language teachers.

Requirements:
-Native English
-An internationally recognized TEFL qualification
-A university degree or equivalent vocational training
-At least six months of relevant teaching experience
-The ability to teach general and business English courses

NOTE: Applicants must have a valid TEFL certification and must be native English speakers.

Compensation:
We offer a 12-month contract. Working hours consist of 26 academic hours (45 minutes each) per week. Overtime pay is provided for teaching hours beyond 26 ach/wk. New terms start every six months. We offer payment and provision for all legal documents including a letter of invitation and a working visa for the period of agreement. We also provide emergency medical care insurance.

Pay rates vary from $22 to $25 per ach after taxes, depending on qualifications and courses taught. Salaries are paid twice per month. New teachers have a three-month probation period.

Accommodation and Transportation:
Apartments can be somewhat difficult to arrange in Moscow. Therefore, we help our teachers with finding private accommodation. The average rent for a one-room apartment is $900 - $1100 per month.

As with any large metropolis, getting around this city is a challenge. Upon arrival, we offer transfer from the airport. Fortunately, the school is located in the heart of Moscow within easy walking distance to public transportation, including the vast underground metro system.
