Indonesia is something of an oriental paradise with it’s towering volcanoes, breathtaking coastlines and tropical rainforests, and yet it is the capital city of Jakarta to which travellers are most commonly drawn. This buzzing metropolis was once thought to be a den of poverty, but now stands tall as one of the most exciting and fast-paced cities in all Asia. This is an incredible destination, and with TEFL tutors in high demand, it’s a great place to start your TEFL career. You’ll find yourself working with a diverse range of people from every walk of life and you can expect to learn as much from your students as they learn from you.
Indonesia is the fourth most heavily populated country in the world and its history of governmental instability and financial crisis has caused much hardship. As the country struggles to build itself a stable and prosperous future the work of TEFL tutors becomes ever more important.
