What’s included in the Paid Internship Programs?

Although all of our internships are ever changing the majority of our internships will include:

120-hour Accredited TEFL Course

Depending on the location and internship specifically, this course is typically completed online at your own pace. We do however offer in-person courses at some of our intern locations! (Keep an eye on our Thailand packages!)

Payment

The majority of our internships are paid with salary amounts varying based on country, location and previous experience. As explained below, no experience is necessary for our internships but it can help you in achieving a higher salary. Please refer to the specific internship page to see the salary range for that country.

The majority of our internships are paid with the exception of a few of our shorter programs. During these, you will receive housing, 3 meals a day and teaching experience in lieu of a salary.

Rent-free Accommodations/ Accommodation Assistance

One of the things we hear people worrying about the most is finding housing before moving abroad. This can be a stressful experience, so we are happy to help. Depending on the country you decide to teach in your employer may offer you a rent-free accommodation. If you are staying in a country where this is not offered then our on-the-ground team is there to help find you a safe and happy home!

Visa Assistance, let us help you with the paperwork!

Paperwork is definitely not the most fun part of travelling, but it needs to get done. That’s where we come in! Our in-country teams will help you navigate the government systems both in your home country and abroad. We assist you with what forms you need to fill out, where you need to send them and the overall timeline for when things happen.

Arrival Orientation

We want to make sure you feel supported when you arrive in your destination country. Therefore, we provide you with an orientation to learn about your new home!

Depending on the country your orientation may take place online or in person once you land. We offer orientations that are anywhere from 3-7 days long!

During these orientations, you’ll get familiarized with the customs (and the faux pas to avoid), practice your TEFL skills, make new friends and maybe even learn some of the language. We always try to include something fun in our meetings so you may be surprised by cultural excursions or cooking classes!

Previous cultural excursions include a city tour and visits to local museums that bring to life the most famous parts of the country’s history. Previous interns have also spent free time exploring cultural landmarks as well as sampling some tasty local dishes.

Ongoing Support

Even once you have started teaching we are still here to help support you. If it is questions about labour laws, contracts or general assistance with moving abroad and best teaching practices, we are there to help.

What is Required of You for the Paid Internship Programs?

Every country you work in is going to have different requirements based on their government regulations. Below is a very brief overview of some of those requirements.
