Teaching English in Taiwan: My Experience and Insights

Post new topic

Yasin46

Hello everyone!


I wanted to share my journey and experiences as an ESL teacher in Taiwan. Having worked here for over four years, teaching grades 1–6, I have truly enjoyed connecting with students and helping them improve their English skills. The rich culture, delicious cuisine, and warm hospitality of Taiwan have made my time here unforgettable.


However, like every experience, it comes with its challenges. Adapting to the fast-paced urban environment and navigating visa processes required patience, but these were opportunities to grow and better understand the local systems.


If anyone has questions about teaching in Taiwan, especially in rural areas like Yilan, Keelung, Tainan, or Kaohsiung, feel free to ask. I'm also happy to share tips for new ESL teachers looking to build their careers here.


Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences!
