English Teaching Jobs in Cambodia

Cambodia’s landscape spans low-lying plains, the Mekong Delta, mountains and the Gulf of Thailand coastline. Phnom Penh is the capital of Cambodia and is home to the art deco Central Market, glittering Royal Palace and the National Museum’s historical and archaeological exhibits. In the country’s northwest are the ruins of Angkor Wat.

Most positions teaching English in Cambodia are on a volunteer basis, due to Cambodia being a developing nation. This is starting to change, however, and knowledge of English for Cambodian nationals is becoming a necessity for obtaining a good job. TEFL training is also becoming more necessary for foreigners to attain desirable English teaching positions. The pay is not great, but the cost of living is low.

Motorbike taxis are very inexpensive, and the quickest way to get around town. The drivers may also have some inside knowledge of the schools in the area. Make sure that you have a phone number they can reach you.
