The Off Season ( September - April)
Students go back to school here in September, just like they do in North America. For English teachers that means the after-school programs in private schools settle into a dependable schedule. From September until May most private English schools are not opening many new classes because most kids have already settled on one school or another. There is still a demand for teachers at this time however, as teachers are ending their contracts throughout the year.
Our Program During this Low-Demand Season (September - April):
|
During this time we do not always offer multiple interviews when you arrive. |
|
| When you get here we will greet you at the Kaohsiung International airport. | |
| You will stay in our guest bedroom, or the Teacher's Temporary Apartment. | |
| You will be taken to your new school to begin observing classes. | |
| We will help you arrange your transportation (ie. help you purchase a scooter or motorcycle), and find you your new apartment. | |
| We will take you to your medical check, necessary for your work visa. | |
| You will have on-going support with tax and visa information throughout your stay in Taiwan. |
Taiwan Teachers services are free to each teacher. We receive a one-time commission from the school you choose, usually about one month after you have begun working there (and everyone involved knows if it is a good fit.) Our teachers receive very competitive incomes. We do not get a 'cut' of the money that you make here.
