  Taiwan

• Taipei: 
Taipei (Taibei)

Length of Position: 1 Year
Dates: Monthly

Description: Taiwan is a country grasping for its own identity. Over the years it has been controlled by the Chinese, Dutch and Japanese, creating a country that is both exotic and familiar, traditional yet progressive.

Slick public transport whizzes between the cities glowing neon signs, but venture into the country and you'll find remote communities where little has changed for centuries.

If you choose to teach in a language school, you can expect an excellent salary and cheap living costs; while in the private schools, salaries are equally as good and accommodation is free. Whichever you choose, the incredible cultural experience will stay with you long after you leave.
