Teach Abroad in Greece

Greece offers a wide range of English teaching jobs in private language schools for experienced teachers. Teachers aiming to teach English in this stunning coastal country can look forward to experiencing a unique combination of ancient history and modern culture. Known for its focus on work-life balance, warm hospitality, and thriving tourism industry, Greece is an ideal teaching destination for expat teachers. Despite economic problems in recent years, Greece still has a high demand for English teachers. The country has hundreds of private language schools, mostly in Athens and on the island of Crete. Getting a teaching job at one of these private language schools typically requires applicants to have a bachelor's degree and a TEFL certificate. Teachers may also need to pass the C1 exam in Greek, but this requirement varies across schools.

How to Work Abroad in Greece

Prepare for Jobs in Greece

Set goals

Greece is dreamy, sure, but if you’re planning to work here, it's time to zoom out from the blue rooftops and ask: what do you actually want from this experience?

  • Think about your lifestyle. Do you want the island vibe with ferry commutes and midday swims? Or are you looking for something more structured in a city like Athens or Thessaloniki?
  • Define your purpose. Are you chasing international work experience? Funding your travels? Or dipping a toe into expat life? Your “why” will shape everything, from the job you choose to the visa you’ll need.
  • Brush up on Greek basics. You don’t need to be fluent to get hired, but even a little Greek will take you a long way in building local trust. Most employers in tourism speak English, but it’s not a free pass everywhere.

Understand the benefits

Working in Greece can be more than just a paycheck or a stop between islands. Done right, it can seriously upgrade your life experience.

  • The pace is real. Greece runs on a slower, more intentional rhythm. Long lunches, strong coffee, and work-life balance are baked into the culture. You’ll learn how to live, not just work.
  • It's easy to network. Greece gets a huge number of international travelers and digital nomads. Whether you’re working in a café or a coworking space, it’s a surprisingly connected place to build global contacts.
  • The lifestyle is genuinely affordable. Rent, meals, and transport are cheaper than most of Western Europe. If you’re strategic, you can enjoy a high quality of life without draining your savings.

Things to know

Before you start daydreaming about sunset shifts in Santorini, here are some things to keep in mind.

  • Visas - Non-EU citizens need a work permit to get hired legally. Some programs help, but most casual employers won’t sponsor. Greece’s digital nomad visa is a solid option if you're working remotely.
  • Timing - Tourism jobs fill up fast, and most hiring happens by spring. Showing up in June hoping to land something on the spot is risky. Make sure to plan ahead.
  • Pay - Most entry-level jobs pay €700–€1,000/month. It’s enough to live simply, especially outside tourist zones, but you’ll want savings if you’re staying long-term.
  • Language - English gets you far in touristy areas, but basic Greek goes a long way. A few phrases can make a strong impression with employers and locals.
