What is teaching abroad?

  • If you are going to teach abroad, this can range from a paid job as an English teacher at a local school in Asia to volunteering at a nursery school somewhere in Africa.
  • Vacancies might be listed as: Teacher, Educator, Sport instructor, Coach, Tutor, Teaching Assistant, Lecturer or Pedagogue
  • Teaching abroad can be done for a short period of time, for example as a volunteer or at a summer school, for an entire school year or even indefinitely if you want to settle abroad
Back to top

Where and what can you teach abroad?

  • Where you can work as a teacher depends largely on your knowledge of the local language, having relevant work experience and your willingness to settle somewhere for an extended period of time
  • As a non native English speaker abroad, you have the best chance of a job as an English teacher at a school or as a private teacher.
  • For all other subjects, from music to mathematics, the possibilities are more limited when you don't speak the local language at a high level.
  • If a teacher is in high demand for a particular subject, the degree of language proficiency will become less important. Also, if you are going to work as a volunteer teacher or tutor, full command of the local language is often not a requirement
  • In addition to teaching English, there are also many Dutch people who work as a Dutch teacher or German people who work as a German teacher or French people who work as a French teacher. Not only at Dutch, German or French schools but also at foreign educational institutions where the language is offered as a study or subject.
  • With the appropriate qualifications, you can also go to work abroad as a diving instructor, surf instructor, ski instructor
Back to top

Why would you teach or help at a school abroad?

  • Helpfulness: for rewarding work you often get as much, or more, back than you put in.
  • Involvement: it strengthens your sense of involvement with a group of children or adults who want to develop or need help.
  • Experience: you are pulled out of your comfort zone and experience all kinds of things every day.
  • Creativity: you can use your creativity well when creating or using teaching materials or lesson content.
  • Empathy: you train yourself to immerse yourself not only in another culture but also in the thought processes of your students.
  • Flexibility: you strengthen your ability to flexibly search for solutions for situations that suddenly arise.
  • Self-insight: there is no better mirror for your own development than a classroom full of children or involved students.
Back to top

What do you need or can you learn if you teach or work in education abroad?

  • Being aware of your surroundings: wherever you teach, you will always have to take your surroundings into account. Every country has its own rules and customs that you will have to adhere to to a certain extent.
  • Being aware of the organization: every school or educational institution also has its own way of looking at education or teaching. Be aware of the limitations/challenges that some schools have due to a lack of money or facilities.
  • Communication skills: knowledge of the local language is not a must but is a great advantage.
  • Being able to be convincing
  • Being able to shape planning
  • Being able to radiate self-confidence

What is the best place to go if you want to teach abroad a volunteer or intern?

  • Argentina: for example teaching street children in Buenos Aires
  • Bolivia: from teaching English to helping at a local village school
  • Cambodia: from teaching monks to helping in special education for blind or disabled children
  • Ghana: for example teaching English or mathematics in the countryside of Ghana.

  • Thailand: at NGO's and social projects you can help teaching English, computer skills, sports or mathematics
  • South Africa: for example teaching sports in the townships
Back to top

What is the best place to go if you want to teach abroad a paid employee?

  • Caribbean islands: working in lower vocational education, secondary education or secondary special education. Jobs available mostly for native speakers, which differs per island from English (e.g. Barbados, Saint Kitts and Nevis), Spanish (e.g. Cuba, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico) and French (e.g. Haiti, Guadeloupe, Martinique) to Dutch (e.g. Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao).
  • China: At the moment, more than 300 million Chinese are learning English. No wonder that most (well-paid) jobs in education can be found in China.
  • Thailand: Friendly people, friendly climate, relatively high demand even for non-native speakers
  • Brazil: Many opportunities to teach within large companies and the thousands of language schools spread across the country; from small villages to the big cities.
  • Chile: often has a relatively higher demand for English teachers.
  • Suriname: for example as a teacher in the interior of Suriname.
  • Middle East: in many countries in the Middle East there are opportunities to teach English, paid or unpaid
  • Italy: there has been a high demand for English teachers in Italy for a long time, for example in Rome.
  • Spain: working as an English teacher teaching Spaniards who want to improve their chances on the job market.

Insurance for working abroad

Back to top

What is insurance for working abroad?

  • Insuring yourself for working abroad means taking out insurance that continues to provide coverage during your paid work abroad.
Back to top

Why take out insurance, and when is normal travel insurance no longer sufficient?

  • There may be several reasons why you need separate insurance for paid work abroad.
  • During your work, local employers generally offer no or limited insurance that does not provide sufficient coverage.
  • The risk of accidents is sometimes greater during your work, for example because you are doing work with which you have little experience or because of the nature of the work.
  • During specific work abroad, additional requirements may apply as soon as you start performing work that involves additional risks. Only special insurance policies offer coverage during this type of work.
  • During work, internships, or volunteer work abroad where you receive a salary or compensation (for example, food or housing), your local health insurance coverage will normally lapse. You will then need special insurance to remain insured for illness and accidents.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally do not provide sufficient coverage to apply for a work visa or working holiday visa.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally only cover stays abroad for a limited number of days. If your trip or stay abroad exceeds the maximum number of days, this generally means that there will be no coverage for the entire travel period.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally only provide coverage for recreational travel without study, internship, or work. If you engage in activities other than recreational activities, this generally means that you will no longer be covered for the entire travel period.
Back to top

  • Make sure you have insurance that is valid in the area where you will be traveling and working.
  • Make sure you are adequately insured for the sports and activities you will be participating in.
  • that you are insured for emergency assistance and early return if something happens to you or your immediate family.

  • that you are well insured against personal liability.
  • that you are well insured in case of accidents.
  • that you insure yourself for legal assistance if there is an immediate reason to do so, unless the coverage is already automatically included in the insurance.
  •  that you take care to choose the right coverage when working in healthcare, with wild animals, and with dangerous machinery.

    What sports activities to do abroad?

    • Have you ever thought of mountain biking, rafting (going down a wild river on a raft or rubber dinghy, climbing or canoeing), survival (which involves building rafts, climbing or canoeing), abseiling (descending a rock face while secured to ropes), zip-lining (whizzing down a cable), canyoning (starting at the top of a river and then climbing, swimming, diving down the bed) or caving (scrambling, wriggling and crawling through caves and crevices)?
    • Maybe you feel more comfortable on a bodyboard (on a half-wave surfboard, you surf the high waves lying down-with flippers), on a hang glider or while paragliding (with a parachute you float down a mountain or dune), hydrospeeding (on a bodyboard with flippers and a wetsuit on you go down a wild river via rapids) or Tiefschneeskiing (racing down through powder snow)?
