What is a normal workweek like?
A teacher’s work schedule typically encompasses 4-6 hours per workday, five days per week. There are sometimes requirements (which typically include extra pay) for weekend or evening class sessions. Depending upon the local practice, there may be multiple holidays and vacation periods during a longer-term teaching assignment. Many of our teachers have ample time to take excursions or tourist trips based on the class schedules of their assigned schools. But, you must be clear on this central point: You will be working in a paid job as an EFL teacher. Your hiring school – and LanguageCorps – will expect you to abide by your commitments as an employee and professional.
