TESOL Jobs in Singapore

Located on the tip of the Malay Peninsula, Singapore is a truly cosmopolitan city and has been home to people from all over the globe for hundreds of years. The world’s only island city-state, Singapore was founded in 1819 as a trading post by Sir Stamford Raffles and remains an important center of international trade and business today. Since independence the city has blossomed into highly-developed, Asian metropolis where skyscrapers rise above tree-lined streets, Chinese shop houses and British colonial buildings.

The legacy of the British Empire and Singapore’s multicultural history can be seen in the numerous districts where different ethnic groups settled in the city. The Colonial District was the seat of British power in Singapore and is centered on the Padang, a large playing field that is home to the Singapore Cricket Club and is surrounded by City Hall, the old Supreme Court and Saint Andrew’s Cathedral. In this district you will find Raffles Hotel; home of the Singapore Sling cocktail and now a national monument. Chinatown is where many of the original Chinese migrants settled during colonial times and is home to many beautifully decorated shop houses and important temples. The Arab Quarter is where traders from Yemen settled in the city and it is now a thriving shopping street selling leather goods, Persian rugs and more. Little India was originally home to Singapore’s Indian population and features Hindu and Buddhist temples.
