India is unlike any country in the world. It offers teachers an unparalleled opportunity to work in a diverse and dynamic education system while immersed in a vibrant culture bursting with colour. In general, English teachers are in low demand in India, but there are plenty of volunteer opportunities and paid positions to be found in cities like New Delhi, Mumbai and Goa. Indian class sizes can range from small, interactive groups to large classrooms, offering opportunities to develop flexible teaching skills. The rich mix of regional identities further challenges teachers to become adaptable, creative and culturally responsive in their practice.

The TEFL Academy’s Level 5 TEFL certification, with 168 hours of comprehensive training, fully equips you for success in Indian classrooms, applying your skills in lesson planning, teaching methodologies, and specialist areas such as Young Learners or Business English.
