English Teacher in Astana Kazakhstan

Unique teaching opportunity and a competitive CV booster, especially for those wanting to progress in the ESL, English as a Foreign Language (EFL), and/or linguistics fields. It is also a great opportunity to explore Central Asia.

Kazakhstan International Linguistic College (KILC) is now in its eighth year. The college provides full-time education in English for schoolchildren from Year 9 to Year 12. KILC follows the English model rather than the American model, so the age range more closely mirrors that of an American high school rather than an American college. At the time of writing, more than 1,000 students study at KILC, and the college is working hard to increase this number.
