Take a gap year and find TEFL teaching jobs in Europe. The English teaching market in Europe has always been strong, but with the economic and cultural integration brought on by the emergence of the European Union, the use of English as a common language of culture and commerce has increased several times over, and with it, the demand for certified English teachers.
Job markets are also booming in Central and Eastern Europe where countries like the Czech Republic, Poland, Russia, and Hungary (to name just a few), are still working to reintegrate with the rest of world after decades behind the Iron Curtain, and have made learning English a top priority for students, workers and business professionals.
Some points about teaching in Europe:
* Many jobs entail 10 to 12 month contracts. September, October and January are busy hiring periods for most countries in Europe, with many contracts ending in early July. January is a secondary season to start employment.
* Summer camps in Europe offer great opportunities for those looking for shorter commitments.
* A typical English teacher will make enough to support himself/herself comfortably, but should not expect to save substantial sums.
