Teach Abroad in Switzerland

Teach in Switzerland to experience a first-class education system and some of the highest salaries in the world. With the growing demand for international teachers across all subjects, there are plenty of opportunities to live and work in Switzerland. Among the world's top education systems, Switzerland’s public school system (also known as the state school system) is excellent and free. Swiss teachers are among the highest-paid in the world, and competition can be fierce for teaching jobs, requiring a lengthy list of qualifications. State school education is multilingual, and students learn from a young age, with English being its second official language. Private schools in Switzerland vary and include international schools, private language academies, hotel schools (all Swiss hotel employees must speak English), and private finishing schools. Many teachers in private schools obtain their positions through networking. Also, they are advised to join an English language teacher’s association to maximize their employment opportunities.
