New Book on Teaching English Shows People How to Find a Job

(I-Newswire) September 30, 2010 - Every year thousands of people go overseas to teach English. They do so because it is a great opportunity to make money, learn about a local culture and save for travel. And every year thousands of people don’t go overseas because they can’t figure out how to get a job, don’t know if they meet the requirements for working abroad, or can’t find good information online.

Now, they can.

Matthew Kepnes, author and founder of Nomadic Matt’s travel site has released an updated version of his awarding winning book on ‘How to Teach English Overseas’.

In the two years since its creation, Nomadic Matt’s has emerged as one of the internet’s most successful travel sites, having been featured by such heavyweights as the New York Times, AOL Wallet Pop, Bing, and the Guardian UK. Kepnes is also a contributor to the Huffington Post and AOL Travel. Before setting up his site, Matt taught English in Thailand and Taiwan and coached other people on how to get teaching jobs overseas, all the while, navigating the world of visas, salaries, and TEFL degrees.

Combining years of knowledge, Kepnes’ latest book is a manual for those hoping to get a job teaching English overseas. The book includes information on *what a TEFL degree is (and if you actually need it), the types of teaching jobs you will find, requirements for being an ESL teacher, salary and benefit information and much more.

The real jewel of the crown is the specific information detailed for 15 of the most popular destinations around the world, giving the reader a comprehensive guide to visas, costs, salaries, and work conditions in each country. This is what makes the book invaluable and will save people countless hours and futile efforts on the internet. This section was built asking real teachers in the country, not by scraping content from the internet. With ‘How To Teach English Overseas’ potential teachers can now make an informed choice about where to teach.

The book, which is already receiving rave reviews online, is a one-stop-shop that can help any potential teacher discover their dream job and teaching location, wherever that may be.
