There are lots of different job opportunities in Taiwan for foreigners but most expats are teaching English as a Second Language. Footprints works with the Ministry of Education in Taiwan in public schools and we also offer job placement in private language schools and private schools around the country. We have jobs available in Taiwan on a monthly basis though some teaching jobs are time specific so be sure to check our Taiwan job board for more information about current teaching jobs in Taiwan.

Taiwan Information - Types of Teaching Jobs in Taiwan

There are a good number of private schools in Taiwan. Like private or charter schools in other countries, often the education, facilities and faculty are a bit more prestigious or comprehensive in these schools. Private schools in Taiwan are often located in the major centers and they are often very selective about who they hire. This is often a good place for teachers in year two or more of their experience in Taiwan or at least after you have a bit of teaching experience behind you, whether from Taiwan or another country.

Bushibans are before and after school programs in Taiwan where student get extra student in certain core areas. Footprints staffs bushibans that hire English teachers to teach ESL to students ranging from elementary to adults. It should be noted that teaching students kindergarten or younger is currently illegal in Taiwan. It should also be noted that if you teach adult classes in a bushiban setting you will likely be required to work split shifts as these students are primarily available before and after regular working hours.

It is illegal to teach English in kindergartens and in pre-schools in Taiwan. Many schools still try to hire teachers for work in these types of schools and they go so far as to set up elaborate alarm systems where if an inspection occurs the receptionist triggers an alarm that sounds in the teaching area and the teacher then heads for the nearest fire escape and takes the day off.
