Cambodia is full of adventure with jungles, beaches, and a fascinating capital city to explore on your days off. Cambodia is a country for the curious traveller – so you’ll meet many interesting people along the way. And isn’t that half of what travelling is about?
Now you can take it a step further and call Cambodia home! Complete your TESOL certification before securing a paid position in one of many teaching institutions dotted all across the country.
On this life-changing trip, not only do you get everything you need to start your English teacher life with a bang, you also get:
Home to one of the largest, most prosperous and sophisticated kingdoms in the history of South East Asia, Cambodia is a country full of culture and shrouded in fascinating history. Remnants of the past adorn the country – with Angkor Wat being the pinnacle of ancient Asian temples that are still standing today.
While most countries in South East Asia have become tourist hotspots, Cambodia is still well off the beaten track. You get all the benefits of living in South East Asia – amazing climate, low cost of living, huge demand for teachers, delicious food, welcoming locals – without the crowds of tourists.
But this isn’t only an adventure full of fun. It’s also an opportunity for you to get a professional certification that gives you a meaningful occupation. With a local income that will help you fund your travels and live comfortably.

Our Teach English trips are designed to get you set up in your new life overseas as smoothly as possible. Our goal is to save you time, money, and stress while eliminating the risk of returning home early. Here’s how we do it:
We’re on your side from the moment you pay your (tiny) deposit. You’ll be assigned a Dedicated Trip Coordinator to guide you through the next steps and answer all your questions. Our team is well travelled so you can learn from our experience.
Your Personal Travel Concierge will help with flights, insurance, visas, and any add-ons you’d like for your trip. These are real humans too – no robots here.
Since your TESOL training will take place in Thailand (for 2023. 2024 intakes will be in Phnom Penh), our local team will be waiting for you at the airport to take you to your accommodation in Thailand.
You’ll be transported to your twin-share accommodation in Hua Hin – your home for the next 4 weeks (or longer if you wish). Or, for bigger intakes, your first night may be in Bangkok and then you’ll be taken to Hua Hin the following day.
Hua Hin is where you’ll be taking your TESOL course. It’s also where you’ll enjoy a wide range of local activities and excursions included in your trip along with your new teacher friends.
These activities include a Muay Thai class to impress your friends back home, visit to a local street dog rescue clinic in case you want to adopt your new best friend, visit to a nearby Thai market and traditional Thai cooking class for when you’re courting that special someone, and a beach BBQ where you’ll meet your fellow teachers.
Once you've passed your TESOL course, you’ll travel to Cambodia (or, for 2024 intakes onwards, everything will be in Cambodia). Your first week involves some intensive cultural and linguistic orientation in Phnom Penh – Cambodia’s capital – to help you adjust to your new home.
These interactive learning experiences will introduce you to Cambodia’s history, language, and customs.
During this first week you’ll also have the chance to go on some exciting cultural activities such as a market visit and Cambodian cooking class, visit to the Killing Fields and Museum, and a visit to a historic Buddhist temple.
More often than not, people are offered a paid teaching position before they even finish their course. In the rare cases this doesn’t happen – as long as you graduated from your TESOL – our local partners won’t stop until you have a paid teaching position confirmed.
But our support doesn’t end there. We’ll be in touch during your trip to make sure everything is going smoothly. If you have any questions or concerns we’re one quick message, DM, email, or carrier pigeon away.
And if there’s an emergency, you can use our 24/7 emergency support lines for anything urgent.
We’re with you every step of the way.
You need to be aged between 20-40 years old and you'll also be required to bring a laptop with you to aid your classroom duties as a teacher, plus you need to be vaccinated against Covid-19.
Flights, travel insurance, visa, criminal background check, souvenirs and spending money, medical insurance, meals, accommodation after your course (we’ll help you find it), entertainment, living expenses, and accommodation deposit.
During your TESOL course, you’ll stay in included accommodation in a double room in Hua Hin (or upgrade to a private room at an additional cost).
Once your course is over, we’ll help you find your new home close to your teaching placement in Cambodia.

The main purpose of this trip is to get your TESOL qualification so you can teach English as a foreign language anywhere in the world.
You’ll do your 4-week TESOL course in Hua Hin, Thailand before landing a teaching position anywhere in Cambodia.
As tourism grows and globalisation makes the world smaller, English continues to be the ‘global language’ for mutual communication.
Which means that people who live in non-English speaking countries could open up a world of opportunities for themselves and their communities by learning to speak English – especially in countries with a growing tourism sector like Cambodia.
This is the perfect trip for someone who wants to follow a career in education, but wants to travel the world while they’re doing it. A stint as an English teacher overseas will look great on your resume and set you up for success for a future in education.
Alternatively – if the corporate ladder isn’t your cup of tea – this is one of those travel ‘hacks’ that’ll allow you to travel indefinitely.

While we would love to include flights and insurance in our trip packages, it is not feasible to have a fixed price due to the diverse destinations, trip durations, and individual coverage needs of our travellers from around the globe. However, once you register for the trip, we will assign you a dedicated Travel Concierge. They will work closely with you to arrange the ideal flights and insurance tailored to your specific adventure.

No experience? No problem! Most Teach trips include a comprehensive in-country TESOL/TEFL course and certification. Led by experienced instructors, these courses equip you with the necessary skills to succeed in the field. All in-country courses include in-person teaching practice with real students so you can gain practical experience as well as cultural immersion, to ensure success when you're out in the field.
One of the huge advantages of choosing Global Work & Travel for your Teach adventure is our commitment to helping you secure your first paid teaching placement. Our in-country partners have a stellar reputation for training highly competent and confident English Teachers. With their extensive network of schools and language institutes, they work diligently to set you up with a paid placement. Once you complete your TESOL/TEFL course, or sometimes even before finishing it, our in-country team will set up interviews, prepare you for success, and guide you towards securing your desired teaching position. Then it's off to enrich the lives of students with your English wisdom!
Most Teach trips include initial accommodation, and our in-country partner will provide resources to help you find a clean, comfortable, and affordable place to stay during your teaching placement. It's common for our teachers to develop great friendships and opt to live and work together. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the modern, nice, and affordable accommodation options available to you. Rest assured, we'll ensure you have a comfortable home away from home during your Teach trip!
Absolutely! While the earning potential may vary depending on the teaching destination, all our teachers on the field earn more than enough to cover their living expenses and save some funds for exciting side trips or future travels. Many teachers even take advantage of additional tutoring opportunities to further boost their income. You can rest assured that your teaching placement will provide you with sufficient financial resources to support yourself and enjoy the incredible experiences that await during your time abroad.
Absolutely! Once you've successfully completed your TESOL/TEFL course and initial placement in the country you booked, you'll have developed the skills and experience necessary to excel in English teaching. Many of our teachers take advantage of this and choose to explore other fascinating destinations while leveraging their English teaching skills as a means to work and travel the world. It's an excellent opportunity to expand your horizons, immerse yourself in different cultures, and continue making a positive impact through teaching. The possibilities are endless when it comes to teaching in multiple destinations - the world is literally your oyster!
While we acknowledge your existing TESOL/TEFL, we require all our teachers to complete our comprehensive TESOL/TEFL Course & Certification included in the trip package. This ensures that you are equipped with the necessary skillset, practical experience, and premium accreditation for success in the field. Even teachers with prior TESOL/TEFL certifications, including those with extensive professional teaching experience, have found immense value in our course. Our courses provide local language and cultural training, lesson planning, in-class observation and evaluation, and more. It serves as a refresher, helps you acclimate to the local environment, make lifelong friends, and ensures you are fully confident when applying your teaching skills.
Covid-19 threw us a curve ball and pretty much halted all travel. This means that we have a backlog of travellers, just like you, who are desperate to get out and explore the world! Global Work & Travel works on a first-in-best-dressed basis. Booking earlier ensures that you don’t miss out on the best intake, season, placements and more! We recommend our travellers take 6-12 months to plan their trip for a reason - to make sure you’ve got everything organised perfectly, stress-free. As a Global Traveller you’ll get exclusive access to gWorld, our personalised app where you can keep all of your important documents and trip details in one spot and gain insider access to everything Global. This is where you will find exclusive Marketplace Deals, a unique social network to connect you with other like-minded Global Travellers, access to our Academy with an ever-growing range of skills & languages, and so much more. Think all of your favourite apps merged into one, but like, better? Why not give yourself something to look forward to by booking that trip!
Yes you can! Simply tell your Trip Coordinator after booking that your friend is also going and they can link your profiles. For most of our trips we should be able to have you and your friends placed together or nearby. Meaning that you can live, work, play & travel together! But wait there's more! Not only can you travel the world with your besties at your side, you can also earn some extra cash towards your own trip just by referring your friends to Global Work & Travel. You can learn more about the great referral rewards program inside your gWorld account once you join. And for those who decide to go-it-solo, we’ve made it easier to meet other Global Travellers in the same region as you. Just like any other social platform, you’ll be able to interact, share, chat and meet with some really cool people who are doing trips just like you!
At Global Work & Travel, we share a deep love for animals and fully understand the special bond you have with your pet. We recognise the challenges of embarking on a trip without them. Due to travel restrictions, requirements, and limited pet-friendly accommodations among our host organisations, we regretfully cannot facilitate their inclusion in the journey. However, many of our customers choose to entrust their pets to a family member or friend, embark on their adventure, and return home to wagging tails and furry cuddles.
We know that life can get in the way of travel, so all our trips come with a great deal of flexibility. In most cases, if you cannot travel on your selected date, you can place your trip on hold to deal with whatever is holding you back, and continue in the future without incurring any penalty. You may also have the option of transferring to an entirely different trip and destination as well, or even transferring your trip to a friend or family member. In the event that you need to outright cancel your trip, if you give us 84* days notice you can do so with only a 50% cancellation fee. Your refund of the balance will come in the form of a Store Credit which you can put toward any other trip that we offer, including tours through third-party providers, as well as holidays through DealsAway.com, and is valid for 2 years from date of issue. As international travel can be complex, your options are based on the progress of your trip organisation and our support team can assist you in finding the best solution for your needs.
