Best Online ESL Companies To Apply For As A Newbie Teacher| HIRING NOW!!! (2021)

[@bobbythespaceghost9934]

Thank you so much for this information! My goodness. I am racking my brain wondering if I need to take the online route or go overseas and teach. Honestly, if I can make a living teaching online while living in the country of my choice for the rest of my days, I would just do it that way. Teaching adults might be my sweet spot for now because I can have "conversations" with them versus old fashion teaching. This video came in clutch. Thank you again!

Just FYI about Education First its USA only, a TESL and bachelor's degree are required and you will also need a background check if you choose to teach kids. Not sure how beginner-friendly that company is

Hi Tolanda! It depends on the company but I will say the key is opening your schedule consistently for a few weeks out at a time. Cambly for example, is worldwide, so hours don’t really matter much because kids are from all over the world.
