Yes I completely agree. There is no need for an inquisition on a public forum. You know, before you've had experience living and working in a country you want to find as much information as possible and gain some reassurance on your decision. It's very easy for those already living and working abroad to chastise those who do not ask the "right" questions with the proper degree of humility.

Let me turn the question around. What have your friends told you?
That teaching abroad was an enjoyable experience and that in some countries you can break even or even save money and that it would be worthwhile to look into it.
You have admitted to having lots of friends in the situation of working in Korea and Japan, yet this is all you got from them?

No wonder you came here. No offense, but either you weren't very persistent in asking them, or they were not all that close to you or open enough to reply. You could have gotten the above answer on the front page of any TEFL brochure.


Everyone's posts have been very helpful to me here, exactly what I was looking for in fact (even yours)... so I'm just going to stop responding to this MOD EDIT

There is nothing wrong in asking questions on this forum. In fact, it is one of the primary reasons for its existence. Not everyone is an EFL/ESL veteran and asking questions is a logical way to begin to gather information.

The Post Report mode is available to report to the Mods any instances of inappropriate conduct on the part of any member. This includes veterans and non-veterans.
