TEFL jobs in Indonesia
You can find TEFL jobs in Indonesia throughout the year in state, private, and international schools. Most teaching contracts are 20-25 hours a week, leaving plenty of time to explore the country as well as pick up some private tutoring work to supplement your income – as long as your employer allows it.
English is part of the national curriculum in Indonesia so it’s unlikely you would be teaching complete beginners, but there’s also a trend for children to start learning it even younger, so kindergarten jobs do come up. Most jobs involve teaching children and teenagers, so any experience with children you have will be a bonus. While the oil industry is in decline in Indonesia, you can also find corporate work teaching English for oil companies.
Where to find work in Indonesia
Getting hired on the spot does happen in Indonesia, but working freelance makes it difficult to get a work permit. The process of getting a correct visa once you’ve already arrived in the country can also be tricky, so its recommended to seek full-time employment before you travel. Many full-time positions offer reimbursement of visa costs and airfares at the end of your contract, and others will also provide medical insurance and free housing.
