<\/span><\/p>\n As Cambodia\u2019s international and English language education sector continues to grow, the country still sets low entry requirements for teachers to begin their teaching journey. Though different schools may set their own requirements, a college degree and TEFL are not necessary for teaching in Cambodia. The smaller salaries go very far within the country and traveling to nearby SE Asian countries is also affordable. Cambodia has several national holidays that teachers can use to travel and explore the country. The need at international schools, private schools, and training centers catering to both adults and children means there are many opportunities for employment for teachers in the ESL field.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Tourism is Cambodia\u2019s fastest-growing industry and has largely been responsible for the countries rapid development in recent years. Each year millions of travelers flock to Cambodia to take in the majesty of the temples at Seim Reap, the rich history of Phnom Penh, and the beaches of Sihanoukville in the southwest. The country offers opportunities for adventure tourism, cultural exploration, and beachy relaxation alike.
