Hey there. Congrats on your teaching job in France, lucky you. I actually stumbled upon some classes advertised at my local University in Vancouver that certifies you as an ESL teacher for anywhere in the world, but I then learned that FRANCE and most of Europe requires you to have a University degree to teach English? Is this true?

Would it be possible for my boyfriend and I to move there and acquire jobs?

Hello, I am a Canadian currently teaching English in the North France. It's not overly difficult to find jobs teaching English if you have a university degree however the pay is usually low and the hours are usually random. However, once you are in the milieu it's easier to finder better paying jobs through networking. The good desirable jobs are never advertised Smile
