You may need to go down the road I had to in the UK and do some voluntary teaching to get the experience you need. It's a bummer but you do need the experience as well as the qualifications in most cases. Talking from experience here although I don't teach here now.



I did see though that there is a college opening up in Lefkosa and maybe they will have a need as they are teaching English. Have you tried all the English schools as well as I know they need experienced teachers and I think that the English School of Kyrenia has a lot of older children that need help with their English.



Hope this info helps some.

Hi Wendi,

Dave's ESL Cafe is a good site for new ESL teachers http://www.eslcafe.com

It has a vacancy page that is updated daily. Good luck in getting the necessary experience.

Why not try places like the Foundation School at Girne Americaqn University. Look up their web page. They often take graduates (do you have a degree?) and use them, but probably no vavcancies until october.
