Great experience with lots of support along the way!

I applied for a role on Teaching Nomad and was selected for the position. Throughout the process, Oliver and the staff assisted me with the visa process and always made themselves available to answer questions. I had a few bumps in the road, but they were able to work it out.
I am now happily living and teaching in Shanghai, China. The team continues to check on me frequently. This has been an amazing experience so far, and I am very thankful that with the encouragement of the Teaching Nomad team, I am living my dream.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Just do it, don't second guess yourself. You will be glad you did.

  • The team is always available to assist and support.
  • The site has very detailed information to help you along the way.

Teaching Nomad Support

I am thankful for the support from teaching nomad. They were very helpful and quick with responses when needed during my job searching process. Oliver Gorman was very helpful and always checks in to see how I am getting on, if I need help etc. would highly recommend teaching nomad. Oliver was always caring and would ask how I am settling in, my job process, if I need any assistance etc. Oliver would check in with the school regularly about anything I needed during the job process and would reply instantly and find out what I needed. Oliver was a great help and support during this time.

An excellent experience!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Oliver from Teaching Nomad, during my job search, and I am incredibly grateful for his guidance and support throughout the process. From our first conversation, it was clear that Oliver was genuinely interested in understanding my career goals and aspirations. He took the time to provide advice that was both practical and encouraging.What stood out the most was Oliver's dedication and responsiveness. He kept me informed at every step, promptly answering my questions and ensuring I was well-prepared for interviews. I would recommend Oliver to assist anyone who is searching for a job!

Jayd's Experience - Reinserting into the UAE.

Oliver was incredibly helpful throughout the process. I was pretty nervous about working at a new school due to the flooded teacher market, however through Oliver, I was able to secure an interview and subsequently a very well paid teaching position at a reputed school. The interview process was conducted in person, and was very competitive. Oliver kept my fiance and I (she interviewed for a different position) updated throughout, as he recieved information. He also followed up numerous times after our onboarding process.

I am extremely grateful for his assistance.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
Waiting for the confirmation emails.

I prayed - A LOT.
Pros
  • Clear communication
  • Following ups
  • Good positions
Cons
  • N/A

Great Experience

Oliver at Teaching Nomad helped me secure a teaching position. He was incredibly helpful and informative. He also remained in contact with me once my contract had started to ensure I settled into the new school and environment. Teaching Nomad made the process of applying for the position effortless and the continuous communication certainly helped me be at ease. Any concerns of mine were also addressed quickly with accurate information. Thank you for the great service! Will definitely recommend Teaching Nomad to other expats trying to secure a Teaching position abroad.

Teach English in Thailand

My experience with Teaching Nomad was very helpful! I was looking for a job in Taiwan and my recruiter, Mike Ostrowski, was quick to respond and sent me a list of available jobs there. He also sent me an available position in Thailand. Long story short, the school in Thailand turned out to be my dream job!
I am now employed in a place where I get to teach English at an amazing school in a beautiful region. Even after obtaining this position my recruiter is still offering his assistance. I so appreciate Teaching Nomad and all that they do to help people achieve their dreams!

TEFL Certificate with Teaching Nomad/ University of Colorado - Wow

I wanted to get a TEFL certificate to further my career in teaching overseas. Teaching Nomad / The University of Colorado had a great program. When I needed help, they were able to address any needs in a timely fashion. Their learning program was useful, and helped me. They were always very responsive, and helped direct me where and when I needed assistance. Shout out to Flavio, the problem-solver who can find unique solutions especially when you're in a jam. The teaching practicum portion was quite useful knowing that my instruction would be analyzed to maintain a sufficient level of quality.

Pros
  • Fast
  • Fair-priced
  • Helpful, career building
Cons
  • I have no real concerns - I was very pleased with the experience

Thanks to Mike O. at Teaching Nomad

I found out about Teaching Nomad through a friend of mine, who had just signed up herself. When she first told me about the site, I was admittedly skeptical. Send in your information ONCE, apply to multiple schools, and never write a cover letter again?! It sounded too good to be true! In fact, I was half expecting there to be some sort of catch. But, as I sit here with the contract for my new job in front of me, I'm happy to report that Teaching Nomad is legit. I registered in the last week of February, and I had a job offer in the second week of March. Of course, if a service is free, you're the product, but in this instance, that's a good thing!

I'd specifically like to shout out my recruiter, Mike Ostrowski. He was an angel throughout our time together. Super helpful with any questions I had, sensitive to my concerns, and quick to communicate.

Overall, I had a great experience with Teaching Nomad. I highly recommend giving their service a try.

Review Of Recruitment Experience

I had a great recruitment experience with Teaching Nomad. There are a wide range of roles and locations on offer. I love that you are assigned a personal recruiter. I was blessed with Flavio as mine, who was great. He listened to what I wanted, he tried to find me what I wanted, and put me forfard, but was also realistic and knowledgeable about the different markets and gave me impartial advice during the process regarding contracts etc. This was a far better experience than most recritment websites and agencies.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Schools in China are heiracal working environments, not collaborative. You will be expected to follow their system. If you are happy to comply you will be fine.
