Where to find work in Belgium

Look out for the bi-annual Newcomer  magazine, which is invaluable for recently arrived TEFL teachers looking for language school jobs. It can be tricky to start out as a TEFL teacher in Belgium, particularly if you don’t have much experience or are recently qualified. If this is the case, test the waters by applying for work in a summer school, where you’ll be providing pastoral duties and entertainment to the children as well as their English instruction. As is the case with summer schools anywhere in the world, quality varies and the focus is often more on having fun than academic excellent, but if you take it for what it is, it can be a good way in.
