Professional associations in Teaching English
TESOL publishes journals (available in
university libraries) which carry job ads, and provides an online job hunt service.
Their annual conference includes a hiring fair. IATEFL are
another professional organisation with similar services. Both organisations have
regional affilates in many areas. Like most academic organizations TESOL is more applicable to teachers of TEFL at the university level where service involvement is required for tenure and promotion and the vast majority of TEFL teachers have no involvement with such academic organizations.
Teachers in many countries have established ELT teaching associations. Like any other job search, networking and finding the people who are "in the know" is a great way to find a job or to learn more about local conditions:
Arabia: TESOL Arabia
Korea: KOTESOL
Russian Far East: FEELTA
Philippines: PALT
Singapore: ELLTAS
Thailand: Thailand TESOL
Taiwan: ETA-ROC
At the very least, read the appropriate site to get a feel for the issues that are important in the country you wish to work in. You may also discover who are the leaders locally and what is currently important. Having this information ready will help with any interview. Some sites will link to posts for job notices. Look for conference announcements and plan a visit; these are excellent chances to look for work.
