A Guide to Teaching Abroad in Greece

Locations

You can’t go wrong teaching anywhere in Greece, but there are some more popular options. The big cities like Athens will allow for a wider range of teaching opportunities, but the islands or small towns could provide a more authentically Greek experience.

Athens is the center for culture and excitement in Greece, and it is a great jumping off point for travel within the mainland and out to islands like Mykonos and Santorini.

Thessaloniki, this is the second largest city in Greece and sits in the northern part of the country. It is known as city full of artists and musicians so you will be surrounded by artistic culture while teaching abroad here.

Crete is the largest island in Greece and has a little bit for everyone: an expansive coastline, cities with nightlife that rivals any mainland city, and of course, historical sites.

The Islands are perfect if village life is something you want to experience while teaching in Greece. The pace of life is much slower, and there are big payoffs in terms of scenery and relaxation. If you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life, The Islands are for you.

Three weeks volunteering in Siem Reap

I spent three weeks volunteering at Salariin Kampuchea Learning Center in Siem Reap, where I helped teach English to younger students and supported the development of their social media presence. It was one of the most enriching experiences I’ve ever had. Some days were more challenging than others—adapting to a new environment and finding ways to communicate across cultures. But what I’ll carry with me, more than anything, is the deep sense of connection I felt with the people. I can confidently say I’ve grown and learned so much, and that’s something I’ll always be grateful for. Living and working within the local community gave me a complete perspective shift. I was struck by their warmth and generosity, and the quiet strength with which they face life. From the very beginning, I felt welcomed. The children, the staff, and my host family made me feel included from the start, making it easy to feel at home throughout my time there
