Life in Malaysia
Generally speaking Malaysia doesn't pay particularly well for ESL teachers and most come here for other reasons.
The pay scale for EFL teachers is as follows:
Lowest about RM2400
Average RM3000 - 4000 (Depending on benefits)
British Council RM7000
Also it is quite difficult to get a Visa here, as a minimum you'll need a first degree and 2 years experience. Not all employers are happy to get them and will hire you illegally, saying they'll get a visa for you on arrival, which may or may not be true...
