Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has advice for someone like me who can only seem to get offers from "less than desirable institutions"... EF, BSK, DD Dragon etc...). I've studied and lived in China previously so I understand there are many scams and dishonest people in this field of work.

Aside from my limited experience (I have a lot of childcare and tutoring experience, just not classroom experience) and age (22) I wonder if anything else is keeping me back?

I previously studied abroad in Shanghai and have been wanting to return. So upon graduating this year, I've decided to apply for ESL jobs. I graduated at the top of my class from one of the leading universities in the US. I have previous tutoring experience and am TEFL certified.

Any advice would be great!
