Answer 1

You didn't say which subject you would like to teach or where. Each state has school districts and those districts pay what they can afford. Some poorer states with poor districts may start a new teacher at $20,000 whereas wealthier states or districts may start at $40,000 or better. If you want to teach at a college level, it all depends on which school. The best thing to do is to build a resume and send it out to the schools you have an interest in. Also, it wouldn't hurt to brush up on your English language skills.

Answer 2

teach for america does not pay anything.

your salary will come from the school district that hires you. Find a TFA kid and ask them how their placement system works - often you do not get to choose.

Im in Los Angeles - weve had TFA kids from Florida, Washington state, and Texas - all around.
