I am wondering if I would enjoy teaching English as a second language in a foreign country, maybe China. For now, I am thinking of signing up for a trip that is 3 weeks involved in an "English Camp".
My question is, do you think a 3 week trip would be a good indicator to me as to whether or not I would do a good job if I committed to a long term trip where I taught English for a whole school year?
Also, in how many countries does the government pay your salary for long term teaching (versus you having to raise your own support)? I have heard of one program in China where the government pays you to teach, but I am not sure how common this is in other countries.
Thanks.
