ESL Teacher

Part 2

Are you ready to go to a different country and work as an English Conversation Teacher? Are you ready to work in any country?

Most of the countries will ask for copy of a certificate/degree, passport, picture, salary preference, living preference, maybe some references, and health record. Make up a list of preferences and include them on the last page of your resume or on a separate document. Make sure you are healthy before you go to another country even if you get sick after you are in another country. It would be a good idea to have a health check before you go to another country and have that record with you when you arrive in the country. In China and Korea you will need to have a small physical by a designated physician in the country.
