Review:

Established in 2003, Teach Away has grown to be a leader in international recruiting and educational development. The website attracts job seekers with its helpful resources such as online training and certification guides, TEFL courses, and teacher certification programs.

Teach Away offers employers access to a fast-growing network of over 1.3 million certified teachers, recruitment resources, as well as a teaching recruitment agency. Even though the hiring platform maintains its headquarters in Toronto, only 7% of its traffic comes from Canada, while most of the job seekers using Teach Away are based in the U.S.

Pros:

  • The job board connects employers with licensed teachers, including ESL teachers, university professors, and principals.
  • The platform gives employers immediate access to an impressive network of qualified teachers.
  • Teachaway is a reputable platform affiliated with various programs, such as Bright Scholar Education Group and Magic Ears.
  • Users can advertise positions abroad in regions such as the Middle East, Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, and more.
  • Employers can post jobs with the assistance of an experienced recruitment agency.
  • The site caters to all school types, including K to 12 schools, ECE centers, language schools, and e-learning schools.
  • The platform provides online courses for student teachers, including a teacher certification program and TEFL courses.
  • The site hosts online job fairs to network with top talent.

Cons:

  • Very few positions for jobs in Canada are advertised on the site.
  • This site is only available in English; no multilingual options are available.
  • Pricing is only available upon request.
  • Users are not able to delete an account once it is created.
  • The platform features limited exposure on social media and third-party sites.

Reputation:

While there are a limited number of reviews available online, a handful of reviewers on Trustpilot gave the site a 3.8-star rating.

Pricing:

Teach Away does not list any pricing on its website but they do provide an outline of its packages. Interested employers should contact the platform directly for more information or request a customized demo.
