At least from what I've seen, you don't necessarily need teaching credentials, but most places require a bachelor's degree.

I knew about the jobs that require a degree, I was wondering if there are any that don't require anything. Im working towards a degree right now but I am far from done ha ha..

oh okay, there's a thread here: http://travelpunk.com/boards/showthread.php?t=6154

That explains some teaching english abroad requirements, etc. I'm not sure if there will be much teaching work if you don't have a degree, but then again I've never tried either. Your best bet might be under the counter work at a hostel or a bar.

My coworkers have tried this in South Korea (he was Chinese). It's not easy, but they do give you some relaxation time during the training period.

He ended up returning after a month, but it was because he missed home so much. I'm sure you can handle it, especially if you are ambitious about travel as everyone else on here is.
