Every site I look on appears to tell me I need to have TEFL training, however I have been teaching now for three years and feel that it would be a waste of money for me. Can I get around it and not complete a TEFL do you think? Hi, I currently an English teacher living in England and am looking for work abroad.

The ones you listed aren't in the States (anywhere near me, anyway) and I've picked up that you need in-person classes to make it worthwhile. Any suggestions? I was looking into BridgeTEFL because they offer mostly online work with some weekend seminars I can travel to. Are they reputable?

Not working for any of it; just doing lots of walking and meeting some friends and family along the way. I’m spending some time in the UK, Spain, Portugal, Turkey and France over the next few months.

Tristan, I tend to do just that; work and travel. I either take short term contracts which allow me to travel between them or I find work with companies that send me out on intensive courses in different countries. (Often short-term contracts will offer to reimburse me for flights et al. so I can spend an extra month or so travelling around that area.) Hi Peter and Tristan.
