Teaching English in GuineaBack to Tefl World

Guinea is a country in West Africa which is sometimes known as Guinea-Conakry in order to distinguish it from its neighbours with similar names such as Equatorial Guinea and Guinea-Bissau.  Despite its mineral reserves of gold, diamonds, and bauxite the Guinean economy has struggled in the past, but might improve in the future due to investment in Guinea from countries such as China.  TEFL positions are rarely advertised for Guinea, but if you are keen to work there, then you might try sending one of its schools or one of the NGOs based there a prospective CV and covering letter asking about career opportunities.  Remember to have the full list of vaccinations which are needed for Guinea – the rabies vaccination sometimes needs a course of injections which require up to a month to complete before you depart for the country.
