Teach English in Myanmar

Choosing to teach English in Myanmar offers teachers a unique opportunity to immerse themselves and experience a new culture. Participants are placed throughout Myanmar (though mainly in Yangon (Rangoon), the commercial capital) and work at language centers & private schools. Teaching in Myanmar is the beginning of a rewarding career path, not to mention a chance to gain a one-of-a-kind international experience.

Immerse yourself in another culture, city and country. Meet new people, develop new skills, push yourself out of your comfort zone and gain an experience you will find hard to forget. Myanmar is growing and expanding in many new ways, and teachers will be the ones to help it move forward. Our teachers have the chance to pass along their knowledge of English and other subjects and topics to Myanmar children and adults, who will use that knowledge to improve Myanmar in a major way. This teaching experience is an incredible chance for those wanting to make a huge difference in the world!

Be creative as a classroom leader, demonstrate a love for English that can be shared with your students. As a native English speaker, you have opportunity to support young students to learn and develop a fundamental understanding of the English language – embrace it! Myanmar is fast becoming a popular destination for ESL teachers who are interested in experiencing an ancient and diverse culture in a country that prides itself on its rich history, tropical climate, renowned hospitality, and beautiful natural scenery.

With WOLO Work Abroad and our local partners by your side, you have a fantastic foundation to make this an incredibly rewarding experience, not only for you, but your students, fellow teachers & local community.
