GoAbroad.com Launches Newly Improved Website for International Teaching Jobs and Resources

TeachAbroad.com, GoAbroad.com's directory of international teaching positions, is now enhanced to become a more extensive resource with improved usability, making it easier for its millions of visitors to find the newest paid teaching positions and the most comprehensive teaching resources.

Jacksonville, FL (PRWEB) October 2, 2007 -- GoAbroad.com (http://www.goabroad.com/), provider of the most comprehensive international education and alternative travel directories on the internet, has launched its newly remodeled website, TeachAbroad.com (http://www.teachabroad.com/search.cfm), now designed to constantly provide fresh international teaching positions and resources for teachers.

TeachAbroad.com has been connecting potential teachers to different international teacher placements worldwide since 1999. Jobs and programs are available for English teachers, volunteer and intern teachers, and teachers of language, academics, and arts and skills. To adapt to the changing demands of its growing number and variety of visitors, TeachAbroad.com is now enhanced to become an extensive resource with improved usability.

The remodeled TeachAbroad.com has a new section, Hot Jobs, which brings to the surface content that is most valuable to its visitors - paid teaching job openings. The Hot Jobs section makes it even easier and faster for teachers to find the newest paid teaching jobs available in different countries. TeachAbroad.com also addresses the increased demand for English teachers by prominently displaying TEFL Certification Programs and the TEFL Calendar along with the Hot Jobs. The TEFL Calendar allows visitors to look at a TEFL course based on the dates and location of the course and the TEFL provider, making planning their TEFL certification easier.

In addition to these features, TeachAbroad.com's Teaching Resources now has an interactive section where teachers can share:

- Teaching ideas - creative ideas for effective teaching and for spicing up a boring class

- Teaching Strategies - approaches to teaching concerns like time management, handling large classes, coping with language barriers, and other classroom issues

- ESL Resources such as common slang words and idioms

As a comprehensive resource for experienced and new teachers alike, the Teaching Resources has a beginner's guide, Is Teaching Abroad For You?, which gives the lowdown on requirements, costs, and answers to teaching abroad FAQs. There are also links to online TEFL certification, online teacher training, and weekend TEFL courses.

TeachAbroad.com's Country Search Option, a common feature among GoAbroad.com's directories, allows visitors to see available teaching jobs based on their country of interest.

"With the unveiling of TeachAbroad.com's new features, we are excited to be able to provide teachers all over the world with a more comprehensive and user-friendly resource, placing the freshest teaching job postings, TEFL Certification Programs, TEFL Calendar, and the interactive teaching resources on the foreground," said Troy Peden, one of the founders of GoAbroad.com. "Teaching while immersing in a new culture can be a highly rewarding experience for a teacher. We hope to better serve the millions of visitors who come to TeachAbroad.com to find fulfilling teaching jobs abroad."
