How much money do I need to teach abroad?

Sad to say, but money is an important factor when it comes to teaching English abroad. We’re not saying you need millions but you will need a few notes and coins to get yourself up and running in your new home abroad. How much money do I need to teach English abroad, we hear you ask?

Let’s look at the costs involved in moving abroad:

  • Flights
  • Visas
  • Packing
  • Work clothes
  • Accommodation
  • Commuting
  • Stationery and school supplies
  • Groceries
  • Bills
  • Entertainment

We can’t give you an exact number of how much money you need because that depends on what currency you have and where you are going to live. But if you break it down into these categories, it should give you a better idea of how much you will need.

And don’t forget: you’ll need money to survive until the end of the first month when you get your first paycheque.
