Teaching English in Malaysia
Along with Vietnam, Malaysia is a
place that you will find lots of teachers who used to teach in Korea or Japan
but have moved on to bigger and better things. While there are not that many
English teaching jobs in Malaysia, the ones that are available are excellent in
terms of salary, professionalism and vacation--especially the mentor-teacher
ones where you travel to public schools and work with the local English
teachers. However, out of all the countries in South-East Asia, it is perhaps
one of the least attractive ones for a variety of reasons including lack of
tourist infrastructure (of which any foreigner working there would benefit
from), food, and a high prevalence of Islam and the negative things associated
with that, especially for women.
Working in Malaysia-Helpful Resources
Teaching English in Malaysia- A concise introduction.
The Best TEFL jobs in Malaysia- From the most fabulously helpful website, TEFL-Tips. All the major companies that do the popular mentoring program can be found here. (As an aside, I went to Malaysia to visit an old friend last summer; he is now doing one of the mentorship programs. He loved it and it did seem like a great job from everyone I talked to about it).
Teach Away- University ESL Instructors in Malaysia- This is a recruiting company, but it seems like a very decent job, especially for those who want to teach university students.
