My best advice would to enrol in a classroom based TEFL course in Prague. Something along the lines of a few weeks. Usually the school will then assist you with finding jobs locallly in Prague upon completion. When choosing the course provider, ensure it has this career support.

Before deciding on the course, ask them as many questions about the chances of lining up a teaching job, what the success rate is, and do they have a list of schools to recommend.

ITC-Training in Prague is a good place to start at. They have been around for a while, and have a good reputation.

All the best!
Thank you for your reply. It is very helpful for being in the situation I am in currently.....I was very excited to begin in this journey, but it seems everything I read & research is disheartening. I do not want to go to Central/S. America, although that would seem to be the simplest. I would consider Asian nations, but had my heart set on Europe, specifically Eastern Europe or Italy.

Does anyone know if it is possible to secure a passport from Luxembourg if you have relatives from the country?? I have seen where that is the case in Ireland or Greece, but I cant dig up anything on Lux. My grandmother was a war bride & was born & lived in Lux until she was 18. She goes back every year to this day & still has her whole family living in Luxembourg & Austria....I believe her cousin is some Count in Austra, which is pretty cool.

Thanks again for your help!
