Part of this service will mean that we will provide you with all the details of the vacancy before you come i.e. salary, benefits, contract details, ages of students, environment at the school/s, class sizes, travel distance from where you live and work - basically, all the details you need. And then when you arrive, you will be able to walk into a job without having to first find one. We will also provide you with An "English Teaching Contract" that will need to be signed prior to your arrival in Taiwan.
We require English teachers to come from a native English speaking country. That is: Australia, New Zealand, USA, UK, Canada, Ireland or South Africa.
Having an English teaching position secured before your arrival in Taiwan will ensure your transition to be as smooth and stress free as possible. Once you arrive at Chiang Kai-Shek International Airport, there will be someone to meet and greet you as part of our services.
Upon settling down in your full-time English teaching position, we will begin the process of applying for your work permit. The processing time depends on the documents you are able to provide. On average, it takes around 45 days to process.
