One way in which one can live in Prague and earn money, is through becoming a TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language) teacher. Anyone can become a TEFL teacher, as long as they can speak English and have completed a TEFL course. There are various TEFL job locations throughout the country, and many in Prague, the capital city. Castles and towers galore, Prague is a truly beautiful place and one of the most highly preserved medieval destinations in Europe. It’s a UNESCO world heritage site, but despite the rich historic influence there is a deeply modern and cosmopolitan feel, attracting tourists and travellers both young and old. There are plenty of other TEFL locations however, for example one popular area is Liberec – the once ‘Second city of Bohemia’ – which is nestled in the Jizera mountains.

Summer can be very hot, and winter can be very cold – you get the best of both worlds. For those who love winter pursuits, high levels of snowfalls in mountain areas means there is no shortage of outdoor activities such as skiing. Summer is perfect for hiking and exploring the many beautiful regions that the country has to offer. There are hundreds of famous sights to visit year-round, and plenty of potential tours and trips to keep you busy. As a TEFL teacher, there are varying contract durations with varying wage rates and various benefits. You could be teaching children in a public or private language school, or find a position teaching adults in a business or university context. Employers will support and guide you throughout the experience too, meaning you can really ease in to your position as an English teacher.

The Czech people are friendly and welcoming, and very eager to learn English, so as a TEFL teacher you will be greatly received. After becoming TEFL qualified you will have a valuable commodity that is in high demand across the globe – the ability to teach English. This allows you not only the opportunity to experience the world and its many cultures in the most cost-effective way, but to make a real difference to those you are teaching, providing them with a skill that they can carry with them in to future endeavours.
