Hey,
I have been debating about teaching enlgish abroad this upcomming fall. Does anyone know about any place that offers TEFL courses abroad and (almost immediate) job placement? I most interested in Japan. Thanks!

I know that TEFL international has guaranteed job placement in China and Thailand....I'm not sure about Japan, though.

I think Bridge Tefl has courses abroad and almost immediate job placement. Of course, since you're in country for the course, there are probably many more opportunities available there in country, than we will know about on the web.

Japan? Um...JET Programme

Best of luck!

TEFL Worldwide Prague (www.teflworldwideprague.com) is an awesome program that provides lifetime job assistance worldwide including immediate job placement in Japan. I had a friend from my course go on to teach there directly after he graduated. He even arranged employment while he was still taking the course. The staff is super helpful and made me feel completely welcome in a new city. Plus, Prague is such a great location for traveling around Europe on weekends during the course and is never lacking for things to do! The majority of natives speak English so you should have no trouble getting around either.

Let me know if you have questions about my course! I'm happy to tell you more - my personal email is siciliana@gmail.com.

Most places do offer TEFL placement, though it might vary, from promising you interviews to promising you a job.
