 |

I was just asked the following question by a school representative:
| Quote: |
| Do you have any teacher certificate like TESOL/TEFL? It is required for applying work permit in Taiwan, according to the law. |
I've highlighted the interesting bit. First I've heard of it. Is this true? |

Well, here's the answer to my followup comment, which was 'I thought only a Bachelor was required':
| Quote: |
Yes - that's for language school. Our school is normal elementary/highschool and both degree & TESOL are required.
Maybe u can find a job at language school. |

At the first sign of RED-TAPE, it is advisable to BEWARE!!!
If "u" like working without air-conditioners, teaching large classes (40+ students with mixed abilities) THEN you may enjoy the public schools.
Personally, I prefer AC, about 15 students, easy access to video equipment, photocopiers, etc.
But maybe that's just ME!
More later,
