Info on WorldTeach

Does anyone have any information about WorldTeach?

As far as I know, they're an outfit sending English teachers into Asia. How would they compare with other organisations? Are they pretty reputable, do they treat their employees well?

No worries, I'm not looking for myself - but Ruthie is thinking of heading out to this part of the world.

I used to be a WorldTeach volunteer in the Marshall Islands. It is a good organization, but it is volunteer-based, so you will not make the sort of money in Asia that you can generally expect from other groups sending teachers to that part of the world. It takes care of its teachers by providing decent housing, r/t airfare, health insurance, and a solid orientation. Also, WorldTeach took care of all of our Visa needs. If you have any questions, write me directly, and I'll try to help.

I taught with WorldTeach in China. They are a great organization, with excellent support for the teachers in the field.

Good luck!
