The job market in France is not good at the moment. If you are diligent and open to a variety of locations you might be able to locate work. The worst time to be looking for work in France is in late summer, since everyone in the country is on holiday and there are no students to be taught, and by the end of September most schools have already contracted their teachers for the year and are no longer hiring.
We suggest you begin setting up interviews and sending resumes before your arrival in France, and we can help you with this. There are many language schools in Paris, and many cities in France have a demand for English teachers.
We can give you a list of school web sites in France and help you with resume and interview preparation. We give job placement assistance, but please note that TEFL International doesn’t ‘guarantee’ its graduates employment in France; as with any career, it is ultimately up to you to “sell yourself”.
The average salary in France is about 1200 Euros per month, though of course this varies depending on what type of school or company you work for, whether you work full- or part-time.
If you are a US citizen you will need to secure contracted employment in order to be eligible to apply for a proper work visa. You are not eligible to apply for a visa before leaving the States- you must have contracted employment first. It is difficult to get a legal work contract from a language school in France as schools who hire non-EU citizens will do so without going through the proper legal procedures. If you are a citizen of an EU country, you are permitted to work anywhere in the EU, so this is not so much of an issue for you.
Very few schools will help you secure a work permit, but some will. In order to be eligible for such a visa you must be contracted by your school, and if you are a US citizen you will have to return to the States to obtain the visa. You are not eligible to apply for this visa without already having a job in France to sponsor you, so it is fruitless to go to the Embassy at home before you leave to try to obtain one. (EU members need only their EU documentation to work legally in France or elsewhere in the EU).
