About Istanbul
Turkey is a modern country with an amazingly rich cultural and natural heritage that is opening its gates to the world. The rewards of living and working in Istanbul, a beautiful, fascinating, and diverse city at the crossroads of East and West, are there to be had.
Turkish parents and young people are more eager than ever to learn and use the English language. Dozens of private secondary schools and a few universities use English as the language of instruction, and many secondary schools hire native-speaking teachers. If you speak English as your first language, you are almost guaranteed a job teaching English in Turkey whether you are a new or experienced teacher. The number of students wanting to learn English far outweighs the number of English teachers, so the TESOL employment market in Istanbul, and Turkey in general, is extremely positive and timely.
Why undertake your TESOL course in Istanbul?
- There is currently a high demand for English teachers in Istanbul as Turkey opens its doors to the world and continues the process of entering the European Union
- There is an abundance of jobs for new and experienced teachers
- A large range of benefits on offer, including reimbursement of airfares, bonuses, accommodation, and paid holidays
- A very low cost of living means your salary will enable you a high quality of living and enough money for frequent travel and shopping
- Jobs for degree and non-degree holders
- A culturally rich and historically fascinating city, with warm and welcoming people who are keen to learn English from native speakers
- Jumping off point to travel and gain work throughout The Middle East, Asia or Europe
- Get a feel for living and working in Turkey before making a long-term commitment
What will it cost?
In addition to the standard course cost, there is an ‘in-country training payment’ to complete the course overseas - $250 will be added to the cost to cover the additional provisions for these Study Overseas programmes.
The biggest advantage to doing this course in Istanbul is that you can have an amazing holiday experience in one of the most popular destinations in the heart of Asia and Europe and complete the in-class part of your TESOL training and complete all of your practice teaching lessons and observations.
The course will be run by our qualified trainers who have years of overseas teaching experience.
