TEFL teaching opps in Budapest by james ludwick

Hi I'm a Canadian with an EU passport currently teaching ESL in Costa Rica and I'm just wondering about English teaching opportunities in Budapest starting next Sep&Oct. Does anybody have contacts,info or recommendations regarding this? Thanks

Christine

There are other schools and opportunities available in Budapest besides Angol Intezet. I don't personally know them but that doesn't mean they are fake or legit. PM if you need help. Read More

Firstmed is a great place and the services are "American-like". They are pricier than Hungarian hospitals obviously, but the service is fantastic. Firstmed has prices online or you can call and ask. I don't know anything about eyes :) Only ... Read More
