Teaching English online is a great way to earn money from home. If you are qualified you shouldn’t have any troubles getting a job and by qualified I mean that you have a university degree, a CELTA or TESL certificate and some teaching experience. Here you can find more information about How to Become an Online English Teacher.

It’s a perfect job for those who have taught English overseas and are now looking for work back home. It is also great for current teachers who are looking for more hours. Personally, I teach English face-to-face in the morning and online in the afternoon. This is the original and most complete list of all known online English teaching companies. I have had interviews with several of the companies on this list and I am currently working for one of them. Most companies teach business English, but most of them offer test preparation, group and individual classes too. Recently many Chinese companies that focus on teaching English to children have appeared.

This is a list that I will be updating, please leave a comment if you have any experiences with these companies or know of any others that should be added to the list. Beware that some of these companies may have a bad reputation! Check out the comments at the bottom of the page and read their review page for more info about a specific company. I don’t recommend using a third party or a recruiting website to find an online English teaching job. Apply directly with the company yourself! It is easy!
