This ICAL may be a good way to get a TESOL cert. It's cheap, and probably includes some good methodology. I dropped 1600 on a program that was a month long, required an 800-dollar plane flight, and got me a job in Thailand babysitting high school students who couldn't have cared less about learning English.
And the job I got later in South Korea didn't even require a TESOL. That job paid better, offered better housing and other benefits, and even paid for my flight to Busan. Too bad the director was a liar and tried to fix me up with a gig teaching unruly five-year-olds at his hogwan.
Yeah, I wish I could have found ICAL about three years ago. I would have saved some good money.
