Download Your Money & TEFL Guide

So, you're curious about teaching English abroad salaries? Let's cut to the chase: You don't become an English teacher overseas for the money. For our ESL teachers diving into their TEFL careers, financial incentives aren't at the forefront. Instead, it's the transformative experiences, personal development, cultural immersion, and contributing to local communities that stand out as the main motivations.

That being said, you can get paid to teach English abroad and earn a reasonable salary. Not to mention living a comfortable lifestyle too. Below are the findings from our thorough research on TEFL teacher salaries, derived from data collected across various teaching destinations and insights shared by ESL teachers and educators actively engaged in teaching English abroad.

Decoding Teaching English Abroad Salaries: What You Need to Know

Teaching English abroad involves diverse financial aspects beyond a TEFL salary, including local living costs, benefits, and the impact of currency exchange rates on perceived income. While monetary gain isn't the primary motivation, understanding the financial dynamics beyond your teaching abroad salary is crucial for ESL teachers considering opportunities abroad.

Let's start by addressing a few of your questions:

How Much Does it Pay to Teach English Abroad?

The pay to teach English abroad varies, but you can expect to earn a decent salary. In top-paying countries, teachers can get paid a salary of anywhere from $2,000 to over $5,000 USD per month. Your TEFL salary will depend on your position, qualifications and the country you teach in.

Does Teaching English Abroad Pay Well?

Teaching English is not the most lucrative job, but a first-time English teacher can expect to at least break even and live comfortably. In many Asian and Middle Eastern countries, even first-time English teachers can make enough to save 30%-50% of their income after expenses ($500 - $2,000 USD).

Next, remember to keep in mind factors such as experience, location, education, the cost of living and potential benefits that come with your English teacher abroad salary. Let's look at these below.



Unraveling TEFL Salaries: Beyond Your Paycheck 

How much you can earn teaching English abroad depends on various factors:

  • Your Teaching Location
  • Your Experience Level
  • Your Additional Qualifications
  • Your TEFL Certification
  • Employer Benefits

Let's take a look at these in detail:

The Geographical Region Where You Teach English

ESL teacher salaries abroad vary significantly from one country to another, and sometimes within a single country from one city to the next.

Foreign English teacher salaries are typically, though not always, paid in local currency. Therefore, they should be viewed through the prism of the local cost of living. This means that an English teacher who earns $1,000 USD a month in Peru will enjoy the same standard of living as a teacher in Madrid who earns 2,000 Euros a month. Why? While the teacher in Madrid earns more in absolute terms, the cost of living is higher in Spain than it is in Peru.

Greater earning potentials are often observed in Asia and the Middle East. Aim your TEFL career for these countries for considerable savings opportunities.

Your Accumulated Teaching Experience

The greater your teaching experience, the higher your salary can be. For instance, the Middle East is known to offer some of the highest English teacher salaries. However, it is a very competitive market and employers in the Middle East seek teachers with extensive experience.

Your Other Educational or Professional Credentials

Possessing a college degree expands your opportunities, facilitates getting an English teaching job, and increases your chances of earning a higher TEFL teacher salary in most TEFL markets worldwide. However, lacking a degree doesn't mean the end of your TEFL career. There are many countries where you can teach English without a college degree.

The Possession of a Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) Certification

For any TEFL certification course provider to claim that their program guarantees higher earnings would be misleading. However, discrepancies arise when opting for a budget TEFL course, such as those promoted on platforms like Groupon. These courses, offered at remarkably low prices, often come with hidden expenses, lack adequate tutor or customer support, and frequently lack proper accreditation.

Recruiters and employers worldwide typically prioritize reputable and accredited TEFL certifications. Without accreditation, you might encounter challenges in securing employment, limiting your job options, and potentially settling for lower pay.

Employer Benefits (Vary from Region to Region and Job to Job)

You cannot consider how much TEFL teachers make without including your potential employer benefits. Schools in some countries provide national health insurance and paid vacation time. In other cases, employers provide free accommodation and utilities to help teachers with living expenses. Another perk could include the reimbursement of airfare. Such benefits will vary from region to region and job to job.

Now that you understand the intricacies of an English teacher abroad salary, let's break the finances down per country and have a closer look at these salaries and benefits on the TEFL market worldwide.

TEFL Salaries in Asia

Teaching abroad salaries in Asia will typically enable you to save between 30%-50% of your salary after expenses. This can range from $200-$300 USD a month in a country like Thailand to $500-$800 USD a month in Japan, and to $1,000 USD or more a month in South Korea.

The range in savings will be determined in part by your salary compared to the local cost of living and by the exchange rate between US Dollars (whatever your native currency is) and the local currency in which you will be paid.

Watch ITA alumnus Michael Watts discuss his teaching abroad salary and cost of living as an English teacher in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico:

 

TEFL Salaries in the Middle East

English teacher salaries abroad in the UAE, and other Persian Gulf countries like Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain are some of the highest in the world as pay can range from $1,500 - $5,000 a month, with benefits including free housing, paid vacation, health insurance and flights to and from the teacher’s home country.



It must be noted that these job markets are smaller and more competitive than those in Latin America, Asia and Europe. Many language schools in the UAE and other Gulf countries will only hire teachers with extra experience and qualifications (education degree, a national or state teaching certification and/or some professional background in education) in addition to an accredited TEFL certification.

In less developed countries like Egypt, Jordan, Morocco and Turkey, English teacher salaries will typically enable first-time teachers to earn enough to support themselves comfortably, but should not expect to save much, if at all. In such countries, the cost of living is usually low and advanced teaching credentials are not required. In Turkey, some teachers may even receive a stipend for airfare or housing.
