Mixing Spaghetti And English: Teach English In Italy
Are you tired of paying high rates for English lessons in your home country? You’ve come to the right place! In this blog post we’ll tell you all about teaching English in Italy. We will tell you what to expect, the different teaching options, and how much you can expect to earn.
Imagine a job where every morning a freshly brewed coffee awaits your arrival at work and where there is no need for a thick winter coat! That's what it's like if you teach abroad in one of our partner schools in Italy. You can expect a warm welcome and you will be able to experience your new surroundings to the full.
Teach English in Italy, earn extra cash and enjoy your new surroundings!
The Italian culture is famous all over the world for its good food, one of the reasons why Italy is such a popular destination for culinary tourists. For this reason, nearly every Italian town has a pizzeria or an excellent restaurant where you can dine for next to nothing.
The climate in Italy is different to that in other European countries. It's easy to see this by just looking at the maps which show the temperature differences. Here it can snow or rain in July or August and yet temperatures at this time of year are still bearable outdoors – especially around the beaches on the west coast!
Finding work as an English teacher can be difficult, especially if you are looking for a long-term contract. If you teach with us, we can guarantee you absolutely any working hours between September and June with no obligation to take additional classes. You could even teach at weekends in some cases.
We are looking for English teachers with a teaching qualification, skills and of course a TEFL course certificate or equivalent.
If you're interested in working in Italy teaching English, you can find out more here. Our application form only takes a few minutes to fill out and it includes some useful information on the schools we work with. It's free to apply for jobs with us and we will only contact you if your application is successful. If you decide that you'd like to work for us overseas, we can help locate the best possible jobs for you. Please complete the application form here.
Wherever you choose to teach English, you'll find a very welcoming, friendly and safe community where you can learn not only more about Italian culture, but also many other fascinating things as well. If you want to experience the lifestyle of an Italian city like Verona or Venice, then we might be able to help! We are now looking for our next batch of teachers who want to teach in Italy – if that's what you're after, please click here.
Most foreign teachers who come to teach in Italy are looking for a long-term contract with high starting pay and the right hours. We can offer you exactly this! There is no incentive to work for us if your needs are not met. If you don't have constant work, then please don't apply.
You'll especially find the people of Italy friendly and helpful. We've found that the Italians are very keen to help newcomers settle in and will happily show you all about their city, host some visitors from other parts of Italy or bring you out for a cup of coffee – it's always a pleasure to be asked back!
As well as being a good place to teach English in Italy, we think it's also a great place to live here in Verona with its wonderful art and culture. You might enjoy visiting the Arena di Verona or the Castelvecchio. You don't have to travel far from the city to see a magnificent view of the Adige river and its surrounding hills.
Although we welcome you wherever you choose to teach English, you may prefer to experience a different home country environment. Our partner schools in Italy are based in cities and towns like Genoa, Milan, Bologna, Turin and Rome – just choose your area and apply! We will not recommend an area if there are no jobs available there.
Some of these fantastic Italian schools also offer perks like discounted food at school canteens! This is just one example of how they benefit their employees. If you would like to know more about the benefits of teaching in Italy, please click here.
We have a wonderful deal for you: we will provide you with all your instruction and support, as well as housing and affordable food if you decide to work in one of our partner schools abroad. You don't need to worry about paying for everything yourself.
We can help with getting a work visa and an appropriate residence permit in Italy, too! Be aware that it can be difficult (and expensive) to get these documents if you don't already have them and are not working for an official institution. We can help arrange this for you so that you will be able to teach without delay. We will complete your paperwork so that you can start your new job straightaway.
If and when you finish your contract, we can help you find a position in another Italian school. If you have a few years under your belt, then we might be able to bring you closer to retirement! You might also want to share our home city of Verona with us! We offer housing for teachers who are looking for a long-term contract. We also provide full support whether or not you work in an English speaking school within the city.
We know that finding work abroad can be stressful and we hope that our website will help you. Come and explore Italy's rich cultural heritage and the many places which are perfect for exploring beyond the city. You can find out about Verona's impressive cathedral, for example, or Florence's elegant Piazza del Duomo as well as other areas in the Italian region of Tuscany.
We are also confident that we can offer excellent career opportunities with fantastic benefits to our teachers. We usually pay a base salary of circa £19,000 per year plus overtime which could be up to £26,000 per year. Our contract teachers normally work between 20-40 hours per week depending on the school, but we can also offer full-time positions with salaries of around £35,000 per year!
If you are looking for a job in Florence, London or Cambridge then we might have the perfect position for you. We can help you find work as an English teacher in Italy if this is what you require. Our partner schools will make sure that your needs are met – we just need to know where you'd like to teach!
