"Salary's great, kids love sport, saved loads. Would definitely do again! 👍"
"Honestly, I was skeptical at first. Moving halfway across the world seemed crazy. But the resources here are unbelievable - smart boards, VR labs, robotics kits I'd only dreamed of. Yes, there's a learning curve, and yes, some days are tough when you can't find familiar food. But watching these kids light up when they finally grasp a complex concept... that's universal. Plus, the other expat teachers become like family."
"Outstanding opportunity. Professional development beyond expectations. Highly organized placement process. Would recommend to any serious educator seeking international experience."
