In response to Planning an ESL Career Overseas - Teachers Discussion (Robin Day B.Sc. MSc. B.Ed.)

Stuart,
If you are truly wanting to make a difference in students' lives, and are interested in being an effective teracher, I would highly recommend that you get a specialized degree in either TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) or Linguistics. Merely getting a degree in Education will have no meaning whatsoever. Being a specialist and having the specialist degree (not some TEFL or ESL Certificate) will give you the opportunity to have many more legitimate, reputable doors opened for you to teach in Colleges and Universities.
