One of the great advantages of being an English language teacher is that you can travel the world and still get a job; almost every country has a requirement for English language teachers – some need teachers specialising in a particular accent (British or American), others have a focus on a particular age-range. However, once you have either a recognised qualification (see previous section) or basic experience, you can travel and find work around the world. This means that any ELT job section must cover travel and working practice around the world (see the next section) as well as covering agencies that can get you a job in a particular country. Over the next few pages, you will see how to find a job, how to get through an interview, how to get a job in a different country and how to prepare for the culture shock of travelling and teaching in a new environment.
