I earned my TEFL certification in 2022. After hard years brought onto the world during the pandemic, I had the opportunity to look deeply at my life and how I wanted to live it. One of the primary desires that continued to pop up was my want to live abroad. I have always wanted to learn about cultures in a more meaningful way than visiting an area for a handful of weeks and leaving it as soon as I gained my footing. I wanted to be immersed in it so thoroughly that I genuinely could say I knew the place well. Signing up with International TEFL Academy has been the best decision I have made in my adult life. ITA provides the tools and networks needed to move abroad successfully. Through ITA, I was able to connect to other like-minded individuals determined to live out their dreams as well. Their Facebook groups and class discussions were great places to link and prepare to move abroad. My favorite part of ITA's online TEFL certification was the thoroughness of lesson planning and gaining tools to teach students effectively. I lead classes with confidence because of how much I learned through ITA. As much as this is an opportunity to grow through experience, it is also a way to help others reach their language goals, and ITA was a great stepping stone to earning my teaching job.

A Guide to Teaching Abroad in Hungary

Locations

Hungary possesses many great locations for teaching abroad. Whether you prefer a big city, such as Budapest, or a small town in a rural setting, there are many teaching placement opportunities to suit your career goals. Regardless of where you choose to teach in Hungary, you will likely find it easy to develop close relationships with your students no matter what the setting. 

Budapest. It is no surprise that this popular travel destination is also the most common place to teach abroad in Hungary. Known for its beautiful architecture, which ranges from gothic cathedrals to turkish baths to Roman amphitheaters, Budapest is also known for its modern amenities and lively culture. With an affordable cost of living, considering it is such an important capital city, and comfortable urban setting, teaching in Budapest is a great opportunity for nearly any aspiring international teacher. 

Debrecen. With a population much smaller than Budapest, Debrecen is the second largest city in Hungary. Located on the Great Hungarian Plain, Debrecen is a city that offers many future job prospects, but life in Debrecen is also synonymous with an eventful social life. With summer festivals frequenting the streets and an exciting, year-round nightlife, Debrecen is a very lively place to teach abroad in Hungary. 

Rural Areas. For those interested in embracing life outside the nation’s more populous cities, there are many different villages and small towns in the rural areas that offer great opportunities to teach in Hungary too. Teaching jobs in Hungary’s more rural areas will allow teachers to gain a better understanding of the country as a whole, while still having time to explore the bigger cities on weekends.
