English Teacher
Job opportunities are all around the world and in many cases, you don’t need to be certified. You just need to be a native speaker. Send in a few applications to schools in South Korea, Japan, Thailand or dozens of other locations & you’ll be surprised at how many interviews you land.
This is one of the most popular ways to make money while traveling. It’s an oldie, but a goodie. English teachers are in higher demand than ever before. Often seen as a “backpacker job”, teaching English as a foreign language can be very challenging, rewarding, and lucrative.
Although qualifications aren’t always needed, it is best to get a TEFL or TESOL certificate. Professional training means you will have more confidence to teach a class full of kids or adults, and have an edge over competitors who don’t have a certificate.
