- Hello everyon! In this video I share with you my experience teaching abroad in Italy, more specifically, working in Calabria. I share a bit of the reality of teaching English, how much money I made and how much money my peers have been able to make while working in the same place, the work hours and what they consisted of as well as important information you need to take into account if you are employed by an Italian company. This is JUST my experience + opinion and it may differ from your experience/perspective and THAT'S OK! There's no point in leaving a hateful comment 'cause I will delete them.

I heard its difficult to find a job in italy. Best european teaching jobs are found in Spain, France, Czech Republic, and Poland from what I am gathering. All of the money is in Asia and the Middle East
I agree with you except for Poland and Spain, mainly because of the money. You earn just enough to live by but, from what I've heard, you'll work long hours and will probably not save enough money by the end of the academic year. Asian countries do have better salaries although the working conditions aren't favourable, but again, it depends on the contract + company. I haven't met anyone working in the Middle East so I wouldn't know about that! :)
Hi, I'm an English teacher from India. I have a bachelor's in English and a teaching degree. Do you think it's possible for me to get a job as an English teacher in Italy? Thank you so much for posting this video and the information you're sharing.
Is BA in TESOL degree in Sri Lanka and TESOL certificate with 6.5 in IELTS would be eligible for apply for a english teacher position ???
Is learning Italian a must to become an english teacher in there??
Please, i am a graduate of primary education studies and planning on moving to Italy to study masters in TESOL.
I want to know, how much are teachers paid in private and public schools.
I mean, in normal schools and not language schools/academy.
Hi! Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone who has had a job working in a public school apart from the teachers I worked with (and I didn't have a very close relationship to them that would have allowed me to ask them about their salaries). Nevertheless, many teachers do want to get into public schools and the competition, from what I have been told by teachers and locals alike, is fierce. So my guess is that either they are making more money than private teachers OR they enjoy more benefits. Good luck in Italy!
@@andreaegeapato3510 thanks for your response.
About how much money is each paycheck in U.S. dollars?
Hi! I was getting about 1300usd after tax. ❤️
Thank you for this helpful video. I have some questions I'd like to ask you.
Are you a non-native English Speaker? If so, do you face any prejudice as an EFL teacher?
Did you get a work visa? If so, were you sponsored?
Is it really nearly impossible to get a work visa as a teacher?
What kind of teacher profile do you see schools asking for?
Do I need proof of proficiency in Italian in order to work as an EFL teacher?
How can I know a school is reliable?
What is a must in a CV?
What is the best time in the year to apply for a position?
Do you recommend any websites specific for EFL teachers?
Is Calabria a welcoming place for immigrants?
Did you have to validate your diploma to find a job?
What can I do to improve my CV before going to Italy?
TIA.
Hi Cami! Wow, thank you for your questions! I will answer some of these in detail (videos) but I can give you some quick answers now.
✨Yes, I'm a NNS of English (and I have been discriminated by companies + students alike!)
✨Yes! I only have an Argentinian passport so I needed a work visa. And yes! I was sponsored!
✨It is certainly not impossible but it is difficult for many reasons. I was asked if I had a Bachelor's degree and if I had a CELTA.
✨Proactive, friendly, available, content to do anything at any time.
✨Fortunately, you don't need to prove that you can speak Italian! I went to Italy with 0 knowledge of Italian. However, knowing the language a bit helps you with your classes but it's not like a huuuuge impediment.
✨Try Glassdoor (and Google reviews!)
✨Include how your profile matches the school's profile + relevant experience (or qualifications if you don't have a lot of experience!)
✨July/August (or sooner!) as schools in Italy open up in September.
✨Check out David ESL (I believe) + TEFL.org (some colleagues found summer jobs there) but always do your research.
✨Yes and no. I have a video on this: ua-cam.com/video/zshAE5NigJA/v-deo.html
✨Fortunately, I didn't. But I was asked to "legalize it" and get the Hague Apostille.
✨This should be a video on its own! Haha but I would say: just add relevant information + be straightforward when it comes to the skills you have.
Hope this helps! Thank you for joining me, I'm happy to have you here!
Thanks for this helpful video Andrea. I have a bachelor of arts, in English Education from a Nigerian University. How can I get a sponsored school to teach English in Italy?
Hi! Thank you so much for your comment, I'm happy you found this useful.
If you don't have a European passport (one from an EU country), you will have to look for language academies who are willing to sponsor one.
This means that you will have to go through listings OR google language schools wherever you want to work and go to their "careers" or "jobs" section (if they have one). They almost always specify if they are going to sponsor visas or not.
Unfortunately, there's A LOT of racism and xenophobia within ELT. Thus sometimes they'll say that they will sponsor ONLY UK citizens (because of Brexit) but not other candidates with a different nationality.
The school I worked at had a majority of EU citizens as teachers and only three (me, an Argentinian, one Mexican and one Egyptian) "foreign" teachers. We made up around 15% of non-EU staff.
If they are able to sponsor a visa, then it's just a matter of nailing it during the interview!
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

Hi! Thank you for your comment. Milan, from my perspective, is one of the most difficult places to land a teaching job as the competition is quite high. If you have EU citizenship, then you are halfway there. Good luck!
Hi, i don't have teaching degree but I'm working as a secondary mathematics teacher in Thailand for past 5 years. Can i get teaching job in Italy. And I'm not native
Hi,
Thank you for your comment. TBH, I did get a sponsored job in Italy because I had a teaching degree (related to the field) and a CELTA. It's very difficult to know for sure and I don't want to discourage you. Having said this, I think that if you don't have at the very least a CELTA or an equivalent, it would be very difficult to land a job because there are many, including natives, who have at least that.
Nevertheless, sponsored jobs for English teachers in Italy (or in any EU country for that matter) are very difficult to come by, particularly because academies tend to solely focus on attracting Brits and, on rare occasions, US citizens.
I would look into what requirements schools have at the moment and see if you have them. If you don't, you may want to look into them. However, checking which schools offer sponsorship because it would make no sense to get all the paperwork done (certificates and such) if they aren't willing to sponsor.
Hope this helps and good luck! ♥
I am a post graduate in English literature. Can you suggest me how to be a teacher there?
Hi! Def depends on what passport you hold. I've made a couple of videos answering some of these questions, so make sure to check them out! Ideally, you would need a EU passport or find a company to sponsor your visa.
Hey Andrea,
I recently graduated with a BS here in Houston, Texas.
I’m really interested in teaching abroad but there are so many programs and it’s a little over whelming.
Do you have any tips on finding a good program? How did you find out exactly where you wanted to teach? What program or certifications did you get?
Hi! I would say that the most widely recognized TEFL certificate is CELTA, regardless of where you take it. I did mine in Buenos Aires 'cause it was closer. There are a few which are similar in terms of content but aren't as recognized as CELTA. You'll find many, including on sites like Coupon, which will get you a job in countries like South Korea (I've watched some people who have done so and have been successful at landing a job at least).
I have a BA in Teaching English and I did my CELTA a year after finishing my studies. So, theoretically speaking, it wasn't that difficult yet what was actually hard was keeping up with the pace of the course since I took the intensive option (f2f).
I would say that going for CELTA, regardless of the country, will open some doors to you (when it comes to private language academies). Nevertheless, if you have a US passport or a passport from Australia, Ireland, the UK or New Zealand, things get A LOT easier since more often than not language academies don't even ask for certifications (apart from MAYBE a Bachelor's in any area).
So, in the end, it really depends on where you want to teach. I would google (I have a video on that!) the places you'd like to live in and check the requirements. Again, if you have one of the passports I've mentioned, things are a lot easier and usually they provide the training for you (IMO, it's still not sufficient but it does the job - for a bit at least).
Hope this helps :) ♥

Maybe you should title your video, “is it worth working in Italy.”
@@anthonysenatore586 hello there! Thank you for your comment and your suggestion. At the time of posting, the one title that was generating traction was the one I chose since it was specific for teachers. Nevertheless, I have been thinking of posting another one which is more general and your suggestion could be a good fit! 🍀 Stay tuned 👏🏻🫂
Hi. I'm a bit late to the comments, but do schools pay during the holidays, summer/Christmas break?
Hi! Thank you for your comment ❤️ it reaaaally depends on the schools. Some do have summer courses which means that you will likely be teaching over the summer. When I was living in Italy and in my particular academy, they didn't run summer courses apart from PDC which meant that teachers, by March or April, had to apply for summer jobs in different cities. Regarding Christmas, we had two weeks off if I'm not mistaken. Hope this helps ❤️
hey Andrea, i am an undergraduate in BA in English Language. I am going to come to Italy for my masters. I am willing to know that how much does a part time English teacher get paid per hour? and what TEFL course is recommended for me?
Hey! A full-time teacher is making between €1000 to €1300 net per month (that's about 25 teaching hours a week, a teaching hour being 60 minutes). So it depends on the school and the contract and where you are located though.
I did CELTA, which is something many ask when hiring. Nevertheless, I know some who have taken others and they were still hired (like the one offered by Trinity College). So it really depends on what's available for you in the place you're living in and if they are demanding when it comes to certifications or not. I would def think about teaching privately if we're talking about how much money you can make (and also you will not have as many responsibilities as if you were under a teaching contract).
Hope this helps ♥ Good luck with your masters!
thanks a lot Andrea

I don't have a degree, can I still apply?
Hi! Thanks for your comment. I definitely suggest looking into the requirements each school has as they may vary. Some don't ask for one, but some do. It also depends on the visa requirements imposed by the countries. Good luck!
Hi andrea, I have something to ask, how much does a part time english teacher get paid per hour? cuz i wanna take master class in italy ravenna and the part time im gonna do is english speakin class or somethin relate to english, i wanna know the salary per hour🥺
same question
Hey! If you are working for an academy, depending on the city, it can be between 10 to 15 euros. Sometimes more but it can't be less than that. If you are working as a freelancer, then 15 or 20 is more or less the standard (and even more!). Hope this helps ♥
