Im thinking about taking a year off before I apply to law school so I can see a little culture before spending the rest of my life with my nose in the books.
How can I teach English in a foriegn country for preferably one year while making enough to support myself.
I dont speak any other languages, will this prevent me from doing this? I heard of Americans going to China without speaking abit of Chinese and teaching over there.
Look for a site like Dave’s ESL Cafe, there is a discussion group there for teachers of English in other countries. There is a lot of demand for teachers in China, Korea, and other parts of Asia. Be prepared to earn low wages and to live great adventures.

You can start with the peace corps. You may want to invest in a TEFL or TESOL certificate. This will get you hired faster and easier that applicants without it.
