HOW IT WORKS
The Program
If there’s one thing for sure, it’s that you should never have to pay to work. And with us you won’t have to; but, to be able to offer the support, guidance, training, and resources we’re known for, we require all participants to pay a program service fee.
Program Fee
You’ll need a TEFL before you can start teaching in Vietnam. If you don’t have one, the fee will include a course and cost £530. If you do, this drops to £450.
Inclusions
The program fee includes support from the moment you apply to the end of your placement in getting a visa, finding a job, and settling in.
