It will cost you a few thousand dollars if you apply on your own without the help of a lawyer or consultant. If you are single, I would budget $3K for the process. You must also show that you have at least $13,500.00 in savings (in addition to the money you need to spend on the process) to support your establishment in Canada.

How long it takes depends on the program. Anywhere from 8 months to several years.

Note that teachers are not an in demand profession in Canada (this means Canada has more teachers than teaching jobs available). You will also need to complete additional education in order to be allowed to work as a teacher in Canada. If your plan would be to teach in Canada, I would strongly recommend you research the process of being certified to teach in Canada so that you understand what will be involved and how long that might take.

I would recommend that you start be researching if you qualify and have enough points to be selected for Canada's immigration programs. You would be applying through the Express Entry program and need a score of at least 470 to have a chance of being selected:
