Bad experience teaching abroad?

Question

I've just been told not to teach abroad due to loads of scams....soooo many conflicting views I hear.

Can anyone recommend a good company to use and any to avoid?

Thanks :)

Answer 1

The best way to have a good time teaching abroad is to be well qualified for what you want to teach. The institutions you work for will arrange visas, pay for a flight home each year and arrange medical coverage.

If you are not qualified, then you will get none of these things.

Answer 2

It is your bad luck.  Many eminent teachers have taught in prestigious institutions abroad and they are full of sweet memories of their tenure.
