Preliminary Research & Determining Your Needs

The key to a successful teaching position is knowing what is best suited for you based on your own personal interests, financial needs, education level, travel experiences, and of course, the actual job market. This means you should determine your needs and conduct some preliminary research to ensure that your education and experience is relevant to the market in which you wish to teach. 

It is also imperative to decide what your priorities are, as different countries offer drastically different living and teaching environments. Decide on your top three countries of choice. If you haven’t yet decided, refer to the Country Information section of this website to assist you in the selection process.

How to Get Started

After conducting preliminary research and determining your needs, follow the steps listed below to begin your Teacher Placement Service:

Step 1: Email initiate@oxfordseminars.com anytime after you have received your certificate to begin your service.  If you do not contact Teacher Placement right away, you will receive an email approximately ten days after you have completed the 60-hour TESOL/TESL/TEFL Certification Course introducing you to your Job Search Advisor.

Step 2: Send your resume and cover letter to your Job Search Advisor (as outlined in the initiation email you receive once you’ve initiated your Teacher Placement Service.) Your resume should highlight your teaching-related skills, and your cover letter should focus on why you are applying to teach in the country you have chosen.
 

Step 3: After your resume and cover letter have gone through their final draft, your Job Search Advisor will forward them to appropriate schools/recruiters, who will then contact you if your application is selected in order to discuss potential teaching positions. If your country of choice is in a region where the Teacher Placement Service does not have official contacts, your Job Search Advisor will refer to the English Language Schools Directory and Internet resources to assist you in conducting your own job search, and would be happy to review any contract you are able to secure.

Step 4: After you have been offered a teaching position and have received a job contract, your Job Search Advisor will answer any additional questions or concerns you may have.

I know that Oxford Seminars has a good reputation among the ESL community. They have been known for offering good quality training at a more reasonable cost than other schools. I have met students who have graduated from their program and they seem very satisfied. The job placement staff is professional and very helpful.

– D.B., Program Director at private English school in Shantou, China

Thank you for all of your great candidates. We are very satisfied with the teachers you have sent to us. They are all doing a wonderful job at their schools, and we would love to see more teachers like them in the future.

– J. R., Recruiter in China

The school that Oxford Seminars presented me with has been just outstanding in accommodating their foreign teachers, and I am extremely happy with taking on this adventure. I am very thankful for this opportunity of a lifetime and without a doubt Oxford has made it all possible. At the drop of a hat I would recommend teaching English as a foreign language to anyone, young and old alike.

– P.S., Teaching in Wuhan, China

I have just secured a position in Cuenca, Ecuador, and start at the beginning of October. I'm looking forward to teaching, speaking Spanish, exploring Inca ruins, and visiting the Galapagos at the end of my six-month teaching term.
