Work Visa to Teach English in Greece

Post new topic

mek5050

I have read that it is much more difficult for a US citizen, such as myself, to get a work visa to teach English in Greece than it is for a citizen of the EU. I have thought about spending substantial amounts of time living in Greece maybe starting this year and having the ability to teach English as a backup in case I need to make money.  However, I don't have a certificate to do that. I don't want to spend the time and money to get the certificate if I won't be able to get a work visa.  I would appreciate your input on this.  Thanks in advance.
