Determine Ur category of ambition: To determine which category your should aim for, you must do a realistic evaluation of your qualifications. For example, if you do not yet have a BA or equivalent degree and or a TESOL diploma, you may be limited to working temporary at low-skill teaching employment, or working under the table without a visa. Obviously if you have an advanced degree and are fluent in the language of the country you are aiming for, you stand a much better chance of landing a professional job. This is especially true in Asia where many Asian-Americans and Asian-Canadians are finding their fluency in English and an Asian language to be a highly sought-after skill in the business community and plubic school sector. While it may be pretty easy for anyone with a BA to land a job teaching English in Asia, that doesn't necessarily mean it is a job you will do well at or even enjoy. Remember that you never get something for nothing and thinking you will cash in on a foreign job is not a good strategy for international employment. After all, there is a reason that salaries are higher in certain parts of the world - either the cost of living is higher or the conditions are difficult and justify the "hardship" pay. With all of this in mind, those seeking international teaching employment should realize that if their goal is a career-oriented job overseas, they will need to plan and train for the position just as hard if not harder than they would for a similar position at home. |

I've thought and i was not a trained teacher. If you like kids you should enjoy it. You will have to stay on your toes though. Teenage boys seemed to be the most prone to intimidation tactics especially if that's all you have in a particular class until they find out you know what you're talking about anyway. |

In Korea, China, Taiwan and Vietnam and Thailand, but ur best bet would be in China. The easiest countries to find work in are eastern european countries, but the pay is pretty low. Jobs teaching English overseas are plentiful for TEFL and TESOL qualified or without experience, teaching jobs can be found in a multitude of interesting and exotic locations.
Teaching English overseas is a worthwhile experience and a great way to meeting new people and gaining new knowledge of other cultures and languages. It is also a great way to see the world and meet other teachers from different countries while building teaching skills together sharing each others knowledge. TEFL jobs are available in just about every country worldwide. |

When would a teaching job overseas begin?
Most schools begin their school year in August or September. Depending on hiring needs, you could be offered a position as late as the preceding July, although most hiring is complete by May or June. Sometimes teaching positions are available in January at the start of the second school semester, and sometimes teachers are needed in the middle of a term. Can a teacher choose where they want to teach? All Teachers should be flexible and open minded in terms of where they will teach. Teachers can choose regions in which they ideally would like to be considered for a teaching position, but an international school outside your preferred region may extend a job offer, which you are free to accept or reject. Does a teacher have to be certified to teach overseas? In most cases teachers must be certified due to school or host country requirements; however, some schools will accept non-certified teachers that have extensive teaching experience. or a TESOL dipolma with certifications |

OK i found something for you about (Israel)
English is in very strong demand, with most of the young population very interested in learning English and very good learners. Because of this there are plenty of opportunities for TESOL English teachers in Israel. To teach in Israel you must hold a college degree from your home country and preferably have some sort of English teaching qualifications (TEFL, CELTA, TESOL, etc). Israelis have a real interest in English and are a pleasure to teach most of the time, picking up the language very quickly. Wages for English teachers in Israel are relatively high, due to the shortage of English teachers, although your wage will definetely be based upon your qualifications and experience as an English teacher. |
