Teaching overseas
I have a friend who is moving to Japan next year to teach English. He has a BS in Chemistry and Biology, but is able to teach English over there. Has anyone had any experience or stories with this? I am a physics major wondering if it would be possible to teach physics overseas.
If this isnt the correct forum please move. Thanks |

Re: Teaching overseas
Teaching English is one of the few "relatively easy" positions to gain in Thailand. That said, the pay is [censored] (around $800/mo) and the conditions are not great. The main requirement is that you speak English as a native language and you have a college/university degree.
If you wish to teach a subject aside from English, you would either have to speak the native language OR specificly get recruited/apply at a British International school or some such other type of private, expensive foreigng run school. |

Re: Teaching overseas
its very easy to teach overseas. think about how many kids there are over there and there is always going to be a huge demand.

Teaching overseas seems like a great way to hate your life.

Re: Teaching overseas
There are tons of American schools around the world that hire American teachers. You're not confined to just teaching English at these schools. The link below is to a firm that recruits teachers to many of these schools (along with US private and independent schools.)

Re: Teaching overseas
I know several people who have done this and none of them have liked it. Hopefully this is just a result of a small sample size and you'll love it.
