Teach Abroad

Many Canadian teachers enrich their careers with overseas teaching assignments. Canadian teachers have an excellent reputation for developing the full potential of learners and are always in demand. There are many countries with opportunities for Nova Scotia teachers. Choosing the right teaching opportunity will help to ensure a positive experience.

Here are some things to consider when choosing to teach abroad:

The political and economic stability of the country
Local customs, dress, culture, religious beliefs
The teacher package (most packages include a base salary, return airfare, vacation time, health insurance, and accommodation. Some packages also include a tuition benefit for dependents and on-site travel and furniture costs)
The curriculum (there are several overseas schools offering a Canadian curriculum—many are modified to include local language and culture/religion classes; be sure you are comfortable with the curriculum before signing a contract)
Local Partners (some local partners are not trained educators and may have a different philosophy about education—it is important to understand the level of involvement of the private partner
How does the overseas work affect your pension back home?
