  • Description

    Full-time jobs for qualified English teachers in the Czech Republic. We are now accepting applications for the academic year. TEFL/Celta/Trinity certification required.

    Our teachers earn on a per lesson taught basis. Therefore, the more lessons taught, the more money earn. Be realistic however; though the Czech Republic has made great strides since 1989, and especially after their accession to the European Union in 2004, the salaries here are still substantially lower than in Western Europe and the USA. Nevertheless, it is important to distinguish between the sum you will earn when converted into your home currency and what the sum in Czech crowns will actually buy you here.

    In short:

    * We offer full time with a minimum of 20 lessons a week. The contracts are open-ended meaning that no end date is specified.
    * A full time teacher can expect to earn from 15,000-19,000 Czech crowns (Kc) after tax
    * This will enable you to have a modest standard of living, in line with that enjoyed by the average native Czech person
    * Many teachers supplement their earnings by taking private students.

  • Highlights

    In addition to your base pay we offer these benefits:

    * Full reimbursement for Prague travel pass
    * Free Czech lessons (other languages at 50% discount)
    * Legal/Official translation of visa documents into Czech

    Pedagogical Support:
    * Excellent resources our library contains over 3,000 titles
    * Senior teacher on duty in teachers room for consultations
