Which Countries Are Options for Teaching English?
For 2025, 15 countries stand out as the best places to teach English abroad:
After a thorough review of more than 80 countries, including feedback from alumni, partners, and experts in international English education, here are International TEFL Academy's current recommendations for the best countries to teach English abroad in 2025. Our criteria for choosing these nations include job availability, openness to international travel, including opportunities for people of different backgrounds and ages, salaries and benefits, and quality of life and experience. We've also intentionally included countries from different regions of the globe.
So where should you go? Let's dive right into it:
Where Can I Teach English Abroad?
English teaching jobs abroad are available in up to 100 countries worldwide and for teaching English online. Even without a college degree, if you get TEFL certified, there are more than 50 nations where you can realistically get hired to teach English as a foreign language.
What Countries Need English Teachers?
With the emergence of English as the world's primary language of international commerce and culture, an estimated 1.5 billion people worldwide are currently learning English. This translates into demand for trained English teachers in nearly every nation from China to Costa Rica.
15. Germany
Located in the heart of Europe, this economic powerhouse offers centuries of history, awe-inspiring castles, and a variety of delicious encased meats. However, due to its global economic status, there is also a strong demand for English learning from young learners to business professionals. Since Brexit, demand for teachers has increased with German municipalities and companies looking to become hubs for UK companies within the European Union. With stable wages and an easier visa process for Americans compared to other European countries, Germany can be a great base for prospective English teachers.
Why Germany is one of the best places for TEFL jobs abroad in 2025:
- English teachers typically earn the equivalent of $1,100 - $2,200 a month, which may not be one of the top TEFL salaries but can afford teachers a very comfortable life, including generous vacation time and benefits that German teachers enjoy. There will be plenty of time to explore the country and surrounding nations!
- The German Freelance Visa allows Americans to teach right in the middle of Europe, where most countries are only open to teachers from the European Union.
To secure a job teaching English in Germany, a TEFL certificate is required. While a college degree is not required, it is strongly preferred by employers and schools.
