Teachers often have more than one option to choose from when selecting a teaching post.
However, you will need to be open and flexible regarding your final placement, since options vary from semester to semester. The academic year begins about September 1 and ends about July 7, with two semesters of approximately 20 weeks each. Although the initial commitment is for two semesters, you may negotiate with your host institution or another school for an extended contract. You may also consult with the CTP office regarding re-placement, for which there is a small fee. If you are qualified, you may teach literature, business, law, or history, using English as the language of instruction.
