Incredibly Interested in Becoming TEFL Teacher...Need Help!
Posted: 04 Feb 2010, 02:59
Hello,
I am currently a Senior in High School. I am extremely interested in teaching English as a second language. I have a few questions about it though.
I will be going to college in Hawaii at either Hawaii Pacific University of Chaminade, so I will be getting a Bachelors degree and possibly a Masters if it is convenient for me.
What majors are generally suggested if you want to have a career in TEFL?
This is something I have been interested in for several years. I am mainly interested in teaching in Asia. Japan or China would be preferable. I am taking Chinese right now but am not sure if that will help or not.
Is it fairly easy to find a job TEFL?
For the certificate, do you suggest online or campus?
HPU offers the TEFL Bachelors and Masters, would that be the most helpful in getting a job overseas?
I really want to make a career out of this. Will any major work with the TEFL certificate?
What country would you suggest for TEFL?
I am not really into this for the money, but the cultural benefits and being able to learn about other people and the way they live.
Sorry I asked so many questions, any help would be much appreciated!
