Job description

Looking to teach English the heart of Central Europe but still looking for that magical “way in”? Working with English Wizards provides you the option to find paid teaching jobs at schools all over Poland with a legal work visa and full support available inside and outside of the classroom.

Poland is one of the world’s fastest-growing TEFL destinations due to its charming culture, beautiful medieval cities, low cost of living, and the widespread availability of jobs for native English speakers. Navigating the job market alone can be quite difficult, especially without EU citizenship, but English Wizards makes the process easier than ever before!

Poland’s major cities, including Warsaw, Krakow, Gdansk, and Wroclaw, have an abundance of teaching jobs available and don’t suffer from oversaturation of English teachers. At least not yet!

English teachers will find a wide variety of jobs available in Poland. In the private sector, there are opportunities to teach at private language schools that cater to both adults and children; business English is also growing rapidly, and many teachers are sent by language schools to teach “in company” classes. For those who prefer the youngsters, jobs in preschools and private primary schools exist as well. Private tutoring is also very popular.

In a nutshell, you have a lot of options for where to teach and who to teach in Poland! At English Wizards, we work with each of our teachers on an individual basis to find the right pathway tailored to each of our strengths. Whether you’re imagining yourself in a classroom of young children or business professionals, we’ve got something for you!

Catering to teachers of all levels of experience and qualification, we provide the following program options:

Teach in Poland
If you’re looking to expand your ESL career teaching highly-motivated students of all ages, this is the program for you. We offer guaranteed paid job placement at language schools and preschools all over Poland.

Freelance Teaching
If you are already a qualified and experienced ESL teacher who’s ready to 'spread your wings’ independently as a teaching professional, our Freelance Program is for you. We arm our freelancers with all the paperwork, support, connections, and guidance necessary to assist qualified ESL teachers in finding the best teaching opportunities Poland has to offer!

Salary and benefits

Salaries for native teachers are in the range of €1000 to €2200 per month. Considering the low costs of living in Poland, this allows for a fairly comfortable lifestyle, covering various “extras” such as regional travel around Central Europe.

Additional benefits of being with English Wizards include:

• Legal work visa BEFORE coming to Europe
• Work anywhere in Poland—we cooperate with schools all over the country!
• Job placements & assistance
• Onsite support from Polish-speaking support staff
• Full pre-departure and arrival support services
• Arrival orientation and regular social events
• Lifetime access to a wealth of teaching resources, such as lesson materials and job guidance
• Being part of Poland’s largest community of English teachers (500+ teachers and counting)

Requirements

All teachers must be native English speakers. We can accept non-natives on a case-by-case basis, assuming that you can speak English at a native level of fluency and have a clear accent. Applicants of all nationalities are welcome to apply; we pride ourselves on having a diverse community of teachers from every corner of the globe. Currently, our teachers come from 37 countries and 5 continents.

If you are not a native speaker, please include an audio or video clip showcasing your English abilities in your application. Non-native applicants without proof of excellent English fluency will be rejected.

Most schools will require a teacher to have a TEFL certification, including live teaching practice and/or prior teaching experience, and we require this for our program as well. Teachers with some prior experience are highly preferred; however, we are happy to accept the right freshly qualified teachers on our programs as well.

A BACHELOR’S DEGREE IS NOT REQUIRED TO TEACH IN POLAND!
