Teach english overseas???

[Kupid Diggs]

Anyone got the website about teaching english in different countries around the world? It sounds interesting to say the least... Thanks in advance.

It sounds like it'll be the coolest thing...to be able to live in another country for a year and live the culture...i heard the pay is crap...but the experience should be unforgettable. Still i would like to do that after college...take a couple years of my life to experience living in a different part of the world, in a different culture while im still in my 20s.

You should also know that there's a stigma with teaching English overseas, and that's that the only people that do it are registered sex offenders, convicts, and perverts that just wanna go over there to get laid by their students...

Well the truth is there are a lot of trash that teach English here in Asia. I'd say its a good short term job but don't make a career out of it. Those guys who do are crackpots. Your pay is good compared to a local.. you can make the most money in Korea.. but there is some serious xenophobia and racism there.. Anyways making 30,000 a year there is like making 55,000 in the US.. You'll be ok financially and be able to kick it in Seoul on weekdays and mack bytches in tokyo on the weekend.

that sounds kool.
i'm chinese, but came here when i was 3.
so if i go back and teach, there'll be no racism

anyone know how you could find a job like that?

Yeah there would be...against YOU! If their paying top dollar to learn English...they want a blonde haired blue eyed person to do it. Since youre Chinese..they'd probably insult you by offering you the "local pay'.

Dave's ESL Cafe is a big site for this. The address is: http://www.eslcafe.com/

You'll hear a lot of differing opinions and people giving you negative and positive experiences and comments (this thread alone has that). I'd take everything with a grain of salt and do your own research and draw your own conclusions.

A lot of weeabos go to especially Japan in the hopes of landing such a job. Definitely worse than crackpots is the wannabes.

My sister is going to china to teach english this september, it does sound interesting doesn't it.

Teachers:

All the academics goto Japan, beginners & nutters goto china, ex-cons in Brazil, Gay Pedo's in Mexico (Mormons), and the fat feminazis to Korea.

Yotsuya-san: Don't forget the otaku, christ they are the worst.

Right on, fuzzx, about those otaku. Most of the weeabos and wapanese are hardcore self-styled otaku. If only they knew that the average Japanese outgrows anime by the time they're in college. It will definitely be a wakeup call for them once they discover most of the Japanese students they teach have never heard of Bleach or Naruto.

Also, I remember hearing that they don't really look at anyone under 25 years old or so. It might be to avoid attracting too many anime nerds.
