Teach English in Romania

General Info

English teachers in Romania typically find work towards the beginning of September and then again in January, with most contracts ending in late June. For those looking to teach through the summer, opportunities at summer English language camps are available, and positions typically start in late June and early July. While there are some opportunities to interview in advance for positions, English teachers should expect to interview in person once they arrive in Romania, and they will also be responsible for their airfare, as well as housing. Most teachers live in apartments recently vacated by previous teachers, and many room with their coworkers.

A solid hourly wage affords English teachers to live a very comfortable life. Schools typically offer around 20-25 hours per week of work, leaving you plenty of opportunity to travel and explore. English teachers need to have a BA to teach in Romania, and a TEFL certification is absolutely necessary as well.
