Are there plenty of ESL teaching positions available in Vietnam?We Answered:
You can not teach any thing without degree officially. But if you are smart, you can have many students and teach them unofficially and this is very popular in VietnamHappy teaching

Generally, what jobs are available in Bangkok other than ESL positions?We Answered:
Very limited to be honest.There are the expat type jobs - but they are rare as hen's teeth these days, and they are most usually found outside of Thailand (advertised in your home country).
Most of the guys I know who are not in the TEFL/ESL game (and it is a game in Thailand in more ways than one) are running internet businesses (offshore from Thailand - very sensible), or in some cases have a business on the ground in Thailand. I also know at least one guy who operates as a consultant out of Hong Kong - but spends most of his time in Bangkok - consulting for overseas (not in-country) clients.
Most of the guys (and there's not many) I know who have actually got a job in Thailand aren't too happy with the ways things work there - the general consensus being if you can avoid getting a job and going for one of the alternatives mentioned you will be a lot happier.
I've personally had some success doing telecommuting work from Bangkok (programming/technical writing)/offshore Internet route.

How (BESIDES AS AN ESL TEACHER) would you structure a one-day-a-week English teaching position?We Answered:
I am not sure what you mean by "besides as an ESL Teacher", unless you want to teach something other than English, which doesn't seem to be the case, so that line is confusing.My set up is probably similar to what you want. I teach two "evenings" a week. I have a total of five classes, two on the first night, three on the second. I have no repeat students in a week's period. Each class is completely independent on its particular needs, since they are broken down into abilities more so than age.
I teach what the class needs, with some guidance from the school, but I am mostly left on my own to teach my way and my particular lessons. Now, in my case, all students are indeed ESL students so if you mean by your original statement that you want to teach English to students in a school setting but they already speak English as a basic language, then, yes, your school will need to determine how best you can fit into their program. Good luck.

Camp Humphreys Army Wife looking for an ESL teaching position?We Answered:
I don't know what all is close to Camp Humphreys, but I do know that South Koreans are VERY eager to learn English. I have been teaching English in Korea for the last 7 months and it is very easy to get students. They also pay very well. (I'm talking about tutoring). If you can get a Korean to help you advertise on a Korean website that would be very helpful when it comes to finding a job.Hope it helps.
PS Korea is a very nice country to live in for Americans.
