ABOUT TEACHING IN INDIA
One of the most enigmatic and beautiful countries, rich in architecture and natural wonders, India is famous for its exotic and unique culture. The Indian people are among the friendliest in the world, and students are polite, fun and extremely keen to learn English.
India is a developing economy in Asia with close relationships to western countries. Many companies and factories in India work tightly with western business partners. Therefore, the need for business English teachers is very high in India. Due to English being an official language in India, children begin to learn the language at an early age giving lots of opportunities to teach young learners as well. As you can see, you will have little trouble finding a suitable teaching position in India.
