Best options for teaching English abroad...
I'm looking into teaching English abroad beginning sometime in the fall. I've basically hit a wall as far as figuring out what the hell I want to do with my life and figured I might as well earn some money living overseas. Who knows, maybe I'll love doing it and I'll have found the career of my dreams.
From my initial research it seems that SE Asia offers the best pay to cost of living ratio and greatest opportunities for employment. I've set my heart on Thailand but would be open to any country where I could live comfortably off a teaching salary. Has anyone here taught English in that area of the world?
Also, been checking out the various certificate programs. It seems for SE Asia a TEFL cert with classroom training seems to be all that is necessary. Is that accurate?
