Local Course - Global Job Opportunities

What do the 2008 Olympics in China and the increase in foreign national workers in Northern Ireland have in common? They both mean huge job opportunities have become apparent to us.

There is a huge demand for Teaching English as foreign language (TEFL) teachers worldwide. Anyone can become TEFL qualified without any previous experience or qualifications. The fact is that all native or fluent English speakers have met half of the TEFL requirements.

A simple i-to-i TEFL course run locally can give you the other half.

i-to-i, award winning Volunteer travel and TEFL training organisation, run their high quality TEFL courses as an innovative and convenient way to learn to teach English abroad.

‘If you're a native an English speaker, love to travel and want to get paid, TEFL is for you. Turn your natural speaking ability into a skill’ comments i-to-i spokesperson Bianca Graham. ‘Not only do we give you the skills and confidence to go out and teach English abroad, we'll help you all the way with careers advice, thousands of job contacts, guide books and teaching materials.’

i-to-i TEFL courses cover everything from grammar, vocabulary to lesson planning.

They involve a one weekend workshop that allows you the chance to develop new and exciting methods to be a TEFL teacher, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Courses are given in a weekend each month in Belfast and i-to-i have now introduced a course in Londonderry Co. Derry.

The next Belfast TEFL course is on 17-18th February and 3rd – 4th March. The service is not over when the course is as the i-to-i team will offer their expert guidance on getting a job with a database of over 8,500 contacts worldwide. Visit www.weekendtefl.com for further details.

If you want a competitive salary, arranged accommodation and TEFL training world-wide before you leave the shores then why not take up an i-to-i Paid Teaching Placement. Paid Teaching Placements give people the opportunity to immerse themselves in these culturally rich countries whilst earning money.

All packages include a competitive local salary and your employer will provide or arrange furnished accommodation near your workplace.

Depending on your destination, you may also be entitled to an end-of-contract bonus and your return flight home, all paid for by your employer.

Not only that but before you leave you will be TEFL trained and know that you will be stepping into a guaranteed teaching job in a reputable school or language institute.

This growing i-to-i service now offers teaching placements in South Korea, China, Brazil, Greece, Indonesia and many more. Visit www.tefljobs.ie for further information on countries, its employment package and applicants requirements.
