I had an amazing experience with this platform while searching for a teaching position abroad. The advisors are incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and always ready to provide valuable guidance. The platform itself is well-organized and user-friendly, making the job search process smooth and efficient. The schools listed are generally reputable, and the application process is well-structured. I highly recommend this platform to educators looking for international opportunities!

Teacher Horizons recommendation

Teacher Horizons are responsive, listen to the needs of the candidates and the school and are committed to working hard to find the best fit for both parties. I would highly recommend Teacher Horizons for both candidates looking for their next school and for schools that are looking for people that match their vision and mission.

Primary Teacher with spouse in Secondary

The end result is perfect, both my wife and I have positions in the same school. However our experiences were quite different. As a primary teacher, I had messages from several representatives at Teacher Network as each rep. deals with a different vacancy. This makes sense but was quite different to my wife who had one contact for her subject. So you need to get used to that.
We also felt like we were not dealt with as a couple. Either my application or hers seemed to be moving ahead quicker than the other. In the past we have been interviewed together or very closely in time together. For this school there was 2 weeks between her interview and mine, so she had a contract offer before I'd even had an interview. To be honest, this was not Teacher Horizons fault, but I still feel that it is important to be recognised as a couple. Hopefully they can improve on this.
On the plus side though, I felt like we skipped the queue, as Teacher Horizons had our references, they were able to show these to the potential employer and recommend us. This is definitely better than applying directly to the school with a CV and letter of application that lands on a pile of others and the school then has to send off for a reference and wait for it to be sent back. Our referees only had to complete the reference once for Teacher Horizons, so it saves them time too.
I would definitely recommend using Teacher Horizons.

Highly recommended!

They are very professional and communication was very prompt. Once I met with the Director of Recruitment the application process was very smooth. I was told to expect communication from the schools I had applied to within a week and it was in fact true. In less than a week I was invited for interviews from very prestigious schools. Highly recommended, makes the job hunt much easier!

Supportive Advisors

I had a great experience using Teacher Horizons for the first time. The advisors were very supportive, recommending me to schools that matched my profile and helping with follow-ups throughout the process. Their guidance made my job search much easier, and I was able to secure an offer thanks to their support. I highly recommend Teacher Horizons to educators looking for international teaching opportunities!

Teacher 4 teacher agency turned into corporation

I have left another review with a 5 star, but that was before. As one of the reviews has pointed out, their service is not at all what it used to be. Poor communication, some advisors are not transparent at all; I doubt very much that she actually forwards the application to schools, as she never follows up and when you ask for the status of the application after weeks, the answer is always " sorry, they didn't accept your application." She did that with several school applications, which didn't make sense, because the schools needed teachers asap and were still posting over a month afterwards. It's not just her, the entire old team has gone down the hill. They have turned from humane teachers that once wanted to help into corporate members that only look for $$$. Very sad. Definitely better to go with paid sites or apply directly to schools.

This is the weirdest recruitment…

This is the weirdest recruitment website I've ever seen. I signed up but cannot access anything. I can't even access my account to edit it or add documents as the hyperlink doesn't work. I cannot view jobs as it says I have to sign up - but I am already signed up AND logged in. Bottom line is, it's unusable. If you're considering using this "recruitment" website, think again. There are better options out there.

Outstanding

I had an excellent experience with Teacher Horizons! The team was incredibly supportive and guided me through every step of the process. Katy, in particular, was amazing—she provided invaluable support and advice and made sure the roles I considered were the perfect fit for me. Her expertise and genuine care gave me the confidence to make the right decision for my career. The entire process was smooth and professional, and I truly felt that they had my best interests at heart. I highly recommend Teacher Horizons to anyone looking for expert guidance in their teaching journey. Thank you for making this such a positive experience!

It used to be a great service. However, recently they have stopped offering the support they used to. A bit of a freeforall. Better off going for a paid site.

In-depth, Personal, Supportive


I have been using Teacher Horizons for the past 3 years, and I have nothing but positive things to say. While they are a smaller company, the personal and in-depth support they offer is unmatched by any other recruiter/ recruiting service I know. They helped me and my husband find excellent posts in 2021, and I will continue to use their services in the future.
