Russia

Russia is one of the world’s largest economic powers, offering a stunning array of biodiversity and climatic ranges for those keen enough to seek them out. English is the business language of Russia, so there are many opportunities to teach ESL. However, prospective teachers should be prepared as Russia has a number of different native languages. Teaching English in Russia may not be as profitable compared to other ESL markets, but the country offers an unparalleled teaching experience.
