I have read some of the entries about teaching in greece, and whilst i must agree with some points(a need for patience, sometimes rude people, unmotivated students...) the year i taught english in greece(preveza) was probably one of the best i have ever experienced. it is beneficial if you have other native english speakers around of course, so i wouldn't recommend going to a town that has only one english school with one teacher.
The night life is excellent and the men are beyond lush, not to mention the many outdoor cafes and bars on the beach that are open in the summer. My students, although very unmotivated and hard to teach, were often extremely sweet and always respectful. These poor kids go to school from 8-2, then go to all of their private lessons(and most kids go to three or four other private schools or tutors after their regular school), so they are often very tired, as i would be! if anyone were to ask me if they should go to greece to teach, i would definetly recommend it, so long as they were prepared to be patient and understanding of the greeks! i had no problems with my employer and i survived quite well on my salary, with my paid-for apartment overlooking the sea. it was quite a good way to make a living!!!

I have just read some of these entries and am quite surprised by all this negativity! I spent an amazing year in Greece(Preveza), and would highly recommend it to anyone. Of course, with the Greek relaxed way of doing things, you must be patient. The students are not very motivated, so it can be exhausting. However, this is all part of the adventure. It is a beautiful place to live, the people are great(or at least entertaining!) once you get to know them. I saw that the Anglo Hellenic Recruiter has put in his two cents, which is great, because they are the agency that got me my job. I do recommend them, I had no problems. I survived quite well on my pay and also had a beautiful apartment overlooking the mediterranian provided for me. Being in Greece that year was definitly the best experience of my life.

The capital of the Preveza prefecture stands at the entrance to the Amvrakian Gulf very near the site of Ancient Nikopolis. It was founded by Pyrrhus around 290 BC and much later was occupied by the Venetians, the French and the Turks before becoming part of the modern Greek state. Today this picturesque little port with its Venetian castle, smattering of neoclassical buildings and scenic surroundings is a good base for exploring the district. One can also combine sophisticated entertainment with natural pleasure at its many fine beaches (Kiani Akti, Alonaki, Agii Apostoli, Panto-kratoras, Kalamitsi, Mitikas and Mono-lithi).
