I am considering moving to Turkey probably around the Istanbul area. Does anyone know how easy it would be for me to get a fairly decent job there? I do not have a university degree but I do have very good a-levels. I would like to teach english as a foreign language but hear that you need a TEFL certificate to do this? Also, how would I go about finding something in Istanbul? I do speak reasonable Turkish but don't know if it would be good enough to find everything out by myself!!

there are some jobs that will let you without a TEFL certificate but I think they are notorious for having poor working conditions, for this I think it is also necessary to have a degree in Turkey.

TEFL is Teaching English as a Foreign Language
TEFL programs offer certification in teaching english. certifications are not always required to teach english, but job prospects (and pay) tend to increase with certification levels and experience.

There are schools that will appreciate pronunciation help with no quals but I would be very careful. You might not get paid and you could get deported if some jealous person decides to tell the authorities you are working without a permit.
