Teach in a Foreign Country

ROAD #1 Teaching English as a Foreign Language	ROAD #2 Teaching in International K-12 Schools
Qualifications ...to teach in a private English academy: Most countries require a bachelor's degree. It usually doesn't matter what the degree is in. But, when schools cannot find qualified candidates, they will take those with lesser degrees. TEFL/TESL certifications help a lot in getting the better paying jobs. ...to teach in a university: Most universities require a master's degree. It usually doesn't matter what the degree is in, but preference is given to those with degrees related to English and/or Education. But, when universities cannot find qualified candidates, they will take those with lesser degrees.	Qualifications Most international schools require a current teaching license and 2 years of experience in the subject and grade level to be taught. But, when schools cannot find such qualified candidates, they will take anyone with a teaching license. If you do not have a teaching license, then stop here and take the other road to teaching in a foreign country.
Where do I apply for EFL or ESL teaching jobs overseas? Well, there are quite a few websites where employers post jobs. And the great part about it is, you don't have to pay a single red cent to apply. The employers pay to post their job openings. If a headhunting agency tries to charge you money, do not pay. You don't have to pay to find a decent job.	Where do I apply for teaching jobs in international schools? Well, there are some online agencies that provide rendezvous or "meeting points" for employers and prospective employees. The sad thing is none of them are free of charge for either the employer or the prospective employee. You have to pay big bucks to apply, the registration is a rigorous rigmarole, and in the end, there is no guarantee that you will get a job.
When do I apply? Private English Academies hire year-round. Universities hire generally before the beginning of the academic year. For Korea and Japan, the academic year begins in March. So hiring generally occurs from December to February. To my knowledge all other countries start their academic year in September, but one must do his/her research to verify that.	When do I apply? Hiring for international schools begins in late January and generally is finished by the end of March. But, schools may have openings as late as June. In every international school that I know of, the academic year begins in late August or early September and ends in June.
