The programme insured that whilst getting my teaching experience, I learnt loads about the history of the children in this area. It has been the most eye opening experience and I am so grateful to have been part of it, I will be back!! The team were super supportive and ensured we were safe at all times. This was my first time solo travelling and I felt confident to flourish and be adventurous in the beautiful South Africa!

A Guide to Teaching Abroad in Australia

Best Places to Teach in Australia

Australia offers a variety of climates ranging from temperate in the south to desert and tropical as you head north. Therefore, depending on the location of your school and the seasons in which you will teach in Australia, you may need to take care to pack a jumper or sunscreen.

Sydney is the largest city in Australia, with a population of around 4.6 million. Beyond it’s incredibly iconic landmarks, the charming coastal town makes a splash with its its energetic vibes of restaurants and marketplaces. While the city pulses with human life, you could also visit the aquarium and zoo to see some wildlife and get inspiration for classroom games.

Perth is Australia’s largest city on the west coast, and has more hours of sunshine per year than all other Australian cities – providing the perfect motivation for students to take advantage of the gorgeous white sand beaches and friendly atmosphere. This sophisticated city boasts relaxing beaches and surf spots in tandem with its recent developments of Elizabeth Quay and Perth Stadium. The unique city is isolated between the Swan River, Indian Ocean, and the desert. 

Cairns is situated on the northern end of the east coast. Known as the “Adventure Capital of Australia,” you can try bungee jumping or whitewater rafting, then take the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway and visit the many waterfalls in the area. Beyond its adventurous and friendly atmosphere, the thriving nightlife of the city offers a great end to a day of outdoorsy weekend excursions.
