Anyone ever teach overseas?

I put this in the general discussion forum for all of FTE as well, but I thought I would get some 7.3 advice as well.

Has anyone ever taught overseas through a program? I am looking into the idea for a lady friend and myself. Preferably a 1 year contract would be great. I am trying to get into China, Japan, or Korea.

Any insight or info would be awesome. Both of us have 4 degrees from colleges, but are not teachers by trade.

I've taught in Russia and in Finland from 1999 to 2004. I thought about teaching in Japan, China, etc but most schools want their instructors to hold a BA/BS degree in any discipline. The pay for ESL instructs is not very high, so don't plan to make a living at it. Make sure you have extra cash with you. Most of by students where business professionals. There is a wealth of information via the Internet. Google it.

Alex, a close friend just left in August for a year in China. He is having a good time. Pay is not great but he is loving the adventure.
