Teaching In Greece

To teach English in Greece, there are several requirements that individuals must meet. Firstly, having a bachelor's degree is often a prerequisite. While it doesn't necessarily have to be in English or education, having a degree is typically required to obtain a work visa and secure a teaching position. Additionally, many language schools and institutions in Greece prefer candidates who hold a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) or TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certification. These certifications provide essential training on language teaching methodologies, lesson planning, and classroom management techniques. Moreover, having a good command of the English language is essential. As a teacher, you will be expected to demonstrate fluency in English to...  [Read more]

Although Greece has been popular with ESL teachers for many years, the recent economic downturn has had a significant impact on the number of jobs available. Despite this, teachers continue to be drawn to the country due to the great climate, stunning beaches, and the general culture. As there are less jobs available than in the past, employers can afford to be a little more picky when it comes to the hiring process. Also, recent changes to immigration laws have made it harder for non-EU citizens to obtain the necessary work visa. As a consequence of these factors, many employers choose to only hire teachers with an EU passport. The basic requirements expected when applying for most teaching jobs are a university degree and a TESOL qualification. Greece has a large network of...  [Read more]

Teaching English in Greece can be a rewarding experience for those looking to immerse themselves in the country's rich history, culture, and stunning landscapes. To secure a job teaching English in Greece, there are several steps you can take to increase your chances of success. First and foremost, obtaining a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification is highly recommended.

Once you have your TEFL certification, the next step is to create a compelling resume or curriculum vitae (CV) that highlights your relevant experience, qualifications, and...  [Read more]

Greece has traditionally been one of the top destinations for teaching English abroad in Europe. Unfortunately, after the global financial crisis in 2008 the country suffered a severe economic downturn that had an adverse effect on all sectors including ESL teaching. Despite this, many people still head to Greece due to its reputation for having a warm Mediterranean climate, amazing beaches and islands, and a relaxed way of life. The biggest market for teachers is in the capital Athens, although other cities such as Thessaloniki, Larissa, Heraklion, and Corfu are also worth looking at. Teacher?s salaries have not really changed much in the last decade, although the average monthly salary for a first-time teacher of around 800 to 1,000 euro per month should still be sufficient to get...  [Read more]

Santorini (Thira) is the main island and around it Thirasia and Aspronisi (parts of the ancient Stroggili) and the two volcanic islands Palea Kameni and Nea Kameni.

Verne was on Thira during the eruptions of 1866 - 1870 and wrote his novel soon after. The volcano dominates the landscape, and the caldera view is stunning.
