Australia TEFL Jobs in Australia


Teach and Travel in Australia

The profession is strictly regulated in Australia and standards are high in both public and private sectors. There is a nationally agreed pay scale for EFL teachers of AU$ 18,000 - AU$ 30,000 per year. However, highly trained Australian EFL teachers cannot always find jobs. As in the USA, a large proportion of local EFL/ESL teaching is done by volunteers.

One option that may be appealing for Britons, Irish and Canadians less than 30 years of age, is the possibility of a working holiday visa. This is a 12-month non-renewable visa that allows you to work in any one job for a maximum of three months. This can be quite convenient for the 'teacher traveler' who would like short-term contracts while traveling around the country.

Sample Jobs

1. EFL Teachers Wanted in Sydney, Australia

ABILITY Education is an English Language College situated within the sprawling UTS campus in Haymarket near Railway Square, Central. The college is expanding and has an immediate and ongoing need for teachers with the appropriate qualifications: a degree and TESOL certificate.

The college is unusual for Australia, in that its students currently come from 24 source countries including Senegal, Algeria, Turkey, Russia, Peru and Mexico.

The sunny staffroom is notable for its happy staff, its easy-going professionalism and its absence of stress and politics. The director of studies has been ‘dossing’ for ELICOS colleges since 1990 and has developed a formula for a progressive staff that fuel college growth and professional development.

In General English there is a co-ordinator for each language level, based around the New Headway series. In ESP there is a co-ordinator for each course: IELTS, Cambridge, TOEIC and EAP.

Current teachers at ABILITY come from the UK, Canada, the U.S., South Africa, Ireland and of course Australia and New Zealand.

Teachers can apply for 5 day (25 hour face to face hour) teaching loads Monday to Friday, or for 4 days (20 hrs) Monday to Thursday.
