TRAVEL & TEACH ENGLISH IN TURKEY

Teaching English in Turkey offers a unique blend of cultural immersion, professional growth, and adventure. As a bridge between Europe and Asia, Turkey is a vibrant destination where TESOL teachers can experience a mix of ancient history, modern cities, and warm hospitality. Cities like Istanbul, Ankara, and Izmir provide ample teaching opportunities in schools, universities, and language centers, while smaller towns offer a more laid-back experience. Turkish students are eager to learn, and lessons that incorporate interactive and practical methods are particularly effective. With a relatively low cost of living, teachers can comfortably enjoy the country's rich cuisine, stunning landscapes, and historical landmarks, making Turkey an exciting and rewarding place to teach English abroad. Turkey, a transcontinental country, is uniquely positioned at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. The vast majority of the country lies on the Anatolian Peninsula (Asia Minor), a large, mountainous plateau bordered by seas on three sides: the Black Sea to the north, the Aegean Sea to the west, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south. The smaller portion of Turkey, Thrace, is situated in southeastern Europe, separated from the rest of the country by the Bosporus and Dardanelles straits. This strategic location has historically made Turkey a bridge between continents, influencing its diverse culture and geopolitical significance.
