Employment in Asia is concentrated in the English teaching field. ESL (English as a Second Language) jobs are plentiful and can be found throughout Asia but are primarily located in Taiwan, China, South Korea, Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam. The highest paying jobs are in South Korea and Japan. The greatest potential to save money is from teaching in Korea whereas the most stable and contract friendly country, to teach in, is Japan. If you teach in Korea, and are even slightly budget minded, you can save around $10,000 your first year. Even though the salaries in Japan are higher than in any other country, you should expect to break even your first year because the country is also the most expensive in which to live.

The greatest benefits for teaching overseas are that your employer will pay for the airplane ticket and also it is standard to receive an end of the contract bonus equal to one month salary (salaries range from $2,000 to $3,000 per month).

Teaching overseas requires a Bachelor degree from College (it can be in any field). Also, some countries require an additional certification in ESL that are interchangeably called TESOL, TEFL, and TESL.

There are many other employment opportunities available in Asia, besides teaching. Soem examples include; translator, journalist (every major newspaper has a section in English), travel guide, management professional, and in the fields of advertising and marketing. You can go to the major newspapers in each country and find an employment section geared towards English speaking people.
