    Hey Bradley, I'm trying to teach overseas as well. I have looked at tons of different places. Korea takes people without an education degree as long as they have a Tefl/Tesol certificate. I have been looking at them to teach english!

    Hi Bradley, Ashley is right, most of our Korean schools will take instructors without an education degree. There are also other options in countries such as China, Taiwan, and Vietnam. You can filter our job board with "ESL Instructor" and see which ones you qualify for: https://www.teachaway.com/teaching-jobs-abroad?loc=All&jcat=ESL+Teaching&lvl=All&sub=All
