- The ability to travel and see the world

There isn't a lot of support from TAPIF once you get to France. If you have issues for any reason, it is up to you to resolve it. (they do make this very clear before you leave for France though!)

Pros
I loved working as a teaching assistant in a French high school. It was very rewarding and I liked my colleagues.
Cons
The compensation for this job is very low. Additionally, you are only able to work for a few hours a week and can’t pursue other employment opportunities in the country not related to teaching English. I couldn’t stay more than one year due to the low amount of hours and compensation.
