Hi Everyone.
Am looking hard at Cambodia and Vietnam for 2017.
I am retired US Army (instructor certified and taught a lot of military schools). I am finishing my BA online and thought I would find some PT Work while I finish. AND, my goal is to travel and TESOL works pretty well with that on a retirement.
Thank you for the posts/forum. It is helpful with my online research.

PS: Congratulations for not being the Ajarn Forum.

I'm thankful it's not the Topix forum!
Good luck!
Thank you for the courteous good luck reply! It never hurts!
On the discipline, there was that for sure, and coupled with the military methodology made achieving standards highly effective.
At the same time, in my 16 years abroad, I have taught Latin Americans, Arabs, Afghans (Afghanistan is part of Asia by the way, most people miss that), etc., etc., etc.
That's also where the retirement comes in. I have an income. I am going to school online and wish to do TESOL to supplement my travels and keep me busy as a part time retirement job for a few years since I retired quite young. I will take it seriously, or as seriously as the situation dictates.
Two Good Lessons I Learned:
"Always the Student; Sometimes the Teacher"
"Mission First; Troops Always:
Another real good one:
"Fuck It!"
A Final
"Situation Dictates"
Have a good week everyone and thank you for responding.

I actually think you'd be well suited to teaching. You have experience teaching people in other cultures and you don't appear to need the money so you could bail on a school if it sucked.
