TEFL jobs in the Czech Republic
TEFL jobs in the Czech Republic are sought after by many, making for a more competitive market. While there are entry-level positions to be found, newly-qualified EFL teachers should be prepared to persevere in their job search.You'll find that many TEFL jobs involve working with adult learners, so some understanding of Business English would be beneficial. However, there are opportunities to teach younger learners and teenagers, which is a growing market.
Prague is undoubtedly the most popular location in the Czech Republic to TEFL. For those with their hearts set on the capital prepare for stiff competition! But there are jobs to be found elsewhere in the country (and even better wages), so for inexperienced teachers it can be a good idea to look elsewhere.
