In response to Major in college - Teachers Discussion (Stuart Ransom)

Rheno would prob advise you to take up comedy and acting and he would have a good point because a lot of teaching is about group/class control/motivation and group/class entertainment while you get across a bit of English in the hour. I was going to suggest you do an Education degree with a major in ESL. You can major in ESL just by doing most of your readings and papers around this topic, but the word ESL will not appear on your degree. You still can write this on your resume.

If you are mature and business-minded open or co-open a school overseas. Choose your country. You don't need a degree for that. There are lots of people looking for partners. Some will be sharks, beware. You might prefer being in the driver's seat in this ESL business. The profits can be big and you won't be anybody's yo-yo.
