Lead Future of Abroad ESL Teaching with a TESOL Qualification

Have you ever dreamt of traveling abroad, exploring the world and creating forever memories? Have you ever thought about making life-long connections and friendships with people from all over the world? Have you ever wondered how you could do so without spending your life savings? The solution for you may be teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) abroad. English as a second language is taught in many countries and many institutions are eager to have native speakers or people with native speaker fluency teaching in their programs.

What do you need to teach abroad? Each institution may have different hiring criteria; however, many institutions require a Teaching English for Students of Other Languages (TESOL) diploma. ProTip: If your future includes teaching in Canada, make sure you choose a Languages Canada approved program such as the one taught by IGK.
