About your Internship
The jewel in Southeast Asia’s crown! If you like the idea of getting paid to teach and travel, whilst exploring a stunning new country – our Paid Vietnam TEFL Internship is right up your street! You could be spending a fun-filled 12 months living in an exciting new culture, while getting real teaching experience, making the most of the world-famous street food, exotic beaches and incredibly welcoming locals.
During your Internship, you’ll earn a good salary which is yours to spend as you wish. The in-country team will assist you in sourcing safe, clean accommodation so you’ll have the hassle of sorting where to live taken away. Plus, with visa help, airport transfers, ongoing in-country support and a brilliant orientation, you’ll have everything sorted for you, leaving you free to focus on the fun bits!
The beauty of our Internships is that we organise everything for you – from getting TEFL qualified to sorting free accommodation, we’ve got your back!!
Before you hop onto that plane, we’ll make sure you’re fully prepared with our UK Government regulated and US-government approved 120 Hour Online TEFL Course. You’ll benefit from unrivalled tutor support throughout your course and, upon completion, your shiny new certificate will be internationally recognised.
So, if you fancy continuing your TEFL career elsewhere, you’ll be covered! You’ll also benefit from full support before and during your internship through our dedicated Customer Support Team and our trusty in-country partners.
We can assist you with your internship application, give guidance on visas, provide help and support with any personal matters throughout your stay and answer any queries or concerns you might have in the run-up to your trip.
Our support doesn’t end when the internship’s over. Although it’s not something you want to think about now, you may want to come back home! We’ll be there post-job to offer further guidance, or other travel opportunities.
What’s my role?
Although you’ll be teaching the classes independently, it’s likely you’ll have a Vietnamese teaching assistant to give you a helping hand when needed! This way, you’ll get some brilliant first-hand teaching experience, plus support from our in-country partner.
Your role as a TEFL Teacher consists of:
- Teaching the school children engaging English lessons
- Creating lesson plans, resources and marking
- Conversing with the schoolchildren in English
- 18-25 working hours per week
- Becoming everyone’s favourite new teacher!
Let’s talk money!
You’ll be earning a salary of between US$1,200 to $2,000 per month so you can consume as much pho and bánh mì sandwiches (amazing Vietnamese food) as humanly possible!
Where will I be placed?
The Internship will take place in amazing destinations across Vietnam, including Hanoi, Hai Phong, Binh Duong, Bien Hoa and Ho Chi Minh City. Our dedicated and experienced in-country partners will match you with the most suitable school and accommodation. With over years of experience in sending TEFLers abroad, you can rest assured that the accommodation and schools we select have been given the seal of approval.
