MASTERS - ONLY WAY TO GO?
"I want to teach english as a foreign language in a foreign country. I do not want to backpack around, but rather to settle for a few years in a new culture. I have a bachelor's degree in social work, and have been a journalist for the past 3 years. What I want to know: Should I get a TEFL certificate, or go for a masters degree? I talked to my local university, and they said the ONLY way to go was a master's degree. I do not trust this advice because that is their business, to get people enrolled. Please help me decide which option is plausible for obtaining a good job. "
