Teaching Jobs in India

When you teach English abroad in India, your life will be like no other here: a magical place where rajahs once roamed in palaces made of marble; where early philosophies and religions were born; and where impenetrable cultural deutero truths were developed over thousands of years. India is color, texture, fabrics, and fragrances. It is a place of intense dichotomy, but also a place of great unity. Here, millions of people live together in some of the largest megacities on Earth, within a country that has many incredible and captivating facets.

A Guide to Teaching Abroad in India

Best Cities

Situated in southwest Asia, the landmass properly known as the Republic of India is surrounded by the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal. With a population of well over one billion, India is second only to China as the most populated country in world. With stats like those, you don’t have to worry about finding some stellar locations for teaching English in India.

Goa. This little state in western India on the Arabian sea packs a lot of flavor with its golden-sand beaches, coconut groves, dense forests, Portuguese touches, and tasty treats. Being one of the top tourist destinations in India, and the 6th in top ten nightlife cities in the world, you can bet that your time teaching here will be an unforgettable experience. Ogle at the Portuguese colonial architecture, meditate your heart out, and savor a bhali-pau (bread roll dipped in curry)!

Mumbai. Formerly Bombay, this financial, commercial, and entertainment hub lies in western India. This energetic metropolis is the most populous in India and offers the majority of programs for teaching English in India, ranging from test prep trainers, to volunteers, to fashion lecturers. You’ll find a juxtaposition here of slums and expensive homes, hard-working laborers and millionaires, skyscrapers and tropical forests. As the birthplace of Indian cinema, film lovers will rejoice with the numerous cinema halls and film festivals.

New Delhi. The capital of India is situated in the northern area and pulses with colonial-era parliament buildings, skyscraping offices, and glitzy malls woven into its scenery. Be sure to visit one of its numerous art, history, or science museums, Jantar Mantar observatory, landscaped Buddha Jayanti Park, and the India Gate. While you can find opportunities to teach English abroad in India here, you can also find positions to teach math, science, arts, humanities, and foreign languages.

I had a wonderful time in this course. My trainer, Ashika ma’am, made the journey truly memorable. Her constant guidance and encouragement inspired me throughout. I was able to learn many new things and gain fresh perspectives. She explained concepts clearly and made learning enjoyable. I feel more confident and skilled because of her support. Overall, this has been a valuable and enriching experience for me.
