Thanks Ana,

It is nice to have those visa options. Did you teach in Japan?

Very nice list, I agree. I’m planning to return to Japan, or perhaps to another country this time, soon. It’d admittedly be a bit easier for me to just set out to Japan again, once I’ve saved something, as my visa there is valid until 2013 and I have a re-entry stamp. All part of those pesky little official things you have to keep in mind when you go. I’d be happy to chat privately with anyone who wants to know more about how to go about it.

Thanks for the comment Tim,

Yes, we made it out of Japan a year ago but I am visiting right now.

Nice list, and good luck with your plan to leave Japan! I’m planning to leave at some point but haven’t set a date yet.

If anyone is reading this and considering teaching English abroad then go for it! Especially if you come from a country that has the working holiday visa programme.

I have a few friends who have taught English overseas and had a great time! It was just that, a safe way for them to be in a new country, yet feeling supported as well. Not to mention the wonderful new things they learned being completely immersed in a new country.

Awesome list – I know lots of people who have the plan to teach English but no idea how to go about it.

Great and important post, John!

So many people wonder how they can travel & this indeed is a quick and easy way. I’ve heard of several who have done it with young children too and loved it as otherwise they never would have been able to travel.

We haven’t done this and probably never will, but I see it as a great win/win option for so many longing to travel!

This is a great resource, John!

Although Teaching English overseas is not at the top of my list right now, it is on the life list. The information you provide will certainly come in handy. I have to bookmark this article!

Thanks,
Karen
