Which part of the island are you thinking of - The Greek/South or
Turkish/North ?

hi
I dont really mind which side I work. I have lived in Paphos for 6 years but really dont mind exploring more of the island.
I have only been over to the northern side of cyprus once and from what I saw and heard I would consider finding out more about it.
All depends where there are any jobs

Since you lived there for 6 years, do you keep in touch with peopel there? Connections are worth their weight in gold.

It's easy. Just go to the city of your choice and start knocking on doors. Teaching jobs for September are advertised between May-July in several newspapers.

Nicosia is full of institutes and there is plenty of work providing you don't miss the summer recruitment phase. I would guess it's a similar story in the other cities.

You can expect a salary of 1,000 - 1,300euros depending on the school and your experience and credentials.

The above information is regarding the Greek side. I don't know about the north.
