Newcastle based company launches to provide teaching jobs in bucket list destinations

A company has launched in the North East, providing guaranteed English teaching jobs in bucket list destinations.

Travel Live Teach, which has been founded by Jamie Petterson, has been launched to create unique adventures while giving back.

The company provides Teach English as a Foreign Language (TEFL/TESOL) courses, with guaranteed job offers in various destinations upon completion of the course.

Founder Jamie, has travelled the world himself, alongside his Dutch wife who he met in Australia. Now living together in Newcastle, they decided to set up Travel Live Teach as a way to support those who wish to travel to bucket list destinations, while giving back to the communities of the places visited in the form of teaching.

Travel Live Teach offers job opportunities in many different locations, including Argentina, Bali, Costa Rica, Vietnam and Thailand.

To continue their mission of giving back, a portion of the profits made by Travel Live Teach will be donated to non-governmental organisation Children of the Mekong, which supports disadvantaged young people of Southeast Asia. The donations from Travel Live Teach are specifically going towards building an education centre in Samrong, Cambodia.

While the company aims to train people to become English teachers, allowing those to visit beautiful countries, they also focus on improving children’s lives through education.

Those who study with Travel Live Teach and begin a job, are offered 24/7 support in doing so. Alongside this, the teachers are also provided with destination specific extras, in order to experience the true adventure of living abroad, including Beach Yoga, Salsa Dancing and more.

Founder of Travel Live Teach, Jamie said: “I created Travel Live Teach after travelling the world and experiencing some amazing cultures, climates and people - including meeting my wife!

“Travel Live Teach was formed with two goals in mind. The first is to create amazing adventures, supporting you to travel and experience some of the best destinations the world has to offer. Secure in the knowledge that once your course is completed you have a guaranteed position teaching English alongside a lifetime job seeking assistance should you want to change destination at any time.

“The second is to give back. Travel Live Teach donates a portion of our profits to ‘Children of the Mekong.’ An amazing NGO supporting impoverished children in South East Asia.”
