Any Moroccan wanting to attend university or to have half a chance of landing a high-ranking job needs to be able to speak English fluently, and the business community has begun to place a higher degree of importance on the English language too. All of which means that there is a steady demand for people to teach English in Morocco.
TEFL jobs in state schools and universities are pretty much reserved for Moroccan nationals, but the growing number of private language schools means that there is steady supply of TEFL jobs in Morocco for native English speakers with TEFL certification and some previous experience.
Wages for full time English teachers come in at around 13,000 dirham ($1,500) a month, while freelance teachers can expect to earn around 170 dirham ($20) an hour. The cost of living in Morocco is relatively low and for many TEFL jobs in Morocco you’ll receive free accommodation or a housing allowance.
These three cities are our top choices for TEFL jobs in Morocco. They all offer something a little different, but they have a couple of things in common too: a high demand for TEFL teachers and loads of TEFL jobs.
Rabat has a very European feel about it, and its clean, tree-lined boulevards sit in stark contrast to the ever-so-slightly crazed streets and squares of Casablanca or Marrakech. It is home to a fair amount of international trade and is the centre of the education system, both of which generate a steady stream of TEFL jobs in Rabat.
While Rabat is where all the MPs and foreign dignitaries are to be found, Casablanca is where the money is made and where the cultural soul of the country resides. It’s also one of the best places to find work teaching English in Morocco.
There’s something other-worldly and medieval about the packed squares and bustling souqs of Marrakech, which is why so many foreign tourists flood into the city every year. All those tourists need people who can speak English, so the demand for English teachers is pretty sizeable and there are usually loads of TEFL jobs in Marrakech.
