Sorry if this had been asked before, I searched but it was flooded with posts about Inner Mongolia (a province of China) while I want to know about uh, Regular Mongolia.

What is the ESL Job Market looking like right now in Ulaanbaatar?

I only have an Associates Degree in Education and a CELTA certification and no ESL experience except during a language exchange and what I will get during my CELTA classes. Will that be enough to get a job? I plan to take one or two online courses towards getting my Bachelors while I am in Mongolia, does that sound possible, how reliable is the internet connection there?

I understand Mongolia is cold, poor and everything else, so please don't try to talk me out of it. I want to go there and get a year or two of ESL experience, get a little closer to my BA, and then head to Taiwan.

Thanks in advance for any replies from anyone with first or second hand experience.

If you go there, you'll find a job, it might take a bit of time, but you'll find something .Hint Santis is NOT the answer.
