Do you dream of teaching English in Ukraine?

TEFL jobs in Ukraine

Ukraine is home to a rich history, stunning architecture, and gorgeous landscapes. Even a short time spent teaching here will give you the opportunity to see some of the beautiful sights that the country has to offer, such as the St. Sophia Cathedral in Kiev. Hiking and camping are popular pastimes, and with dozens of national parks, those who love the great outdoors will be drawn to this spectacular country. Experience the scrumptious local cuisine, which is both delicious and good value for money – worth embracing rather than paying extra for foreign imports.

Where to find work in Ukraine

It’s possible to find a job in Ukraine once you’re in the country, especially if you’re in a big city – language schools are often hiring and you’ll likely get an interview if you just pound the pavement and hand out your CV. Applying in advance is recommended for smaller areas without many schools to choose from, and also for the more elite positions at international schools. Visa regulations can make it tricky to get work from outside the country, especially if you’re a non-EU citizen, so check what the situation is with your home country when you apply.
