Actually, an American would say:
We wouldn't do that in Merikee/Cannukeeville, Huh. Yes, the huh ending is quite popular. It reminds me of the military when all they do is grunt huh. The Canadians say eh, a vestige of the British.
Colloquialisms are not why you cant teach in the EU. Its pure labour related. The British and Irish are EU citizens, ergo, they can work in the EU. Yanks, Aussys, and Kiwis are not EU citizens, so they can not.
Its a labour protection issue and has nothing to do with eh, Huh, or British tags. Also, lets face it, Britain and Ireland are closer and will fill the bulk of the need of English teachers. As an American, I presume, you understand the supply side of that in economics terms Im sure.
