My question is, do you have a degree in English?  If so, there are many schools here in the US that you can work at, but you have to take a national exam to determine what grade level you can teach at.  As far as going to a school to extend your education, financial aid is available to all students who enter into college as long as you meet the certain criteria.  I am attending a community college here in Indiana, but financial aid and housing is available only in universities and some technical schools.  I am originally for the Houston, Texas area, there is Texas A&M and it has a really good English Program, Pre-Med, and also Business.  But do not let that be your only choice.  If you need some help looing for a school you can email me at joe_cop@yahoo.com I am always on.

I put the link to the site I found under "sources."  I've studied abroad before (both high school and college) and it was a great experience.  Most programs will have you go to a language camp before you go.  The problem with studying in Japan is that the kanji, the written language, is incredibly difficult to learn; you wouldn't be able to learn this before you go.  If I were you, I'd look for a english-language program that allows you to live and study in Japan and gives you language lessons.

I would recommend American University because my cousin is going there and she loves it and she is studying Arobic (Egyptian) studies and she is in Cairo, Egypt. It is a little expensive. But if you are willing to go to a good school then I guess I would pay it. Good Luck!

It is wonderful to have such dreams... I had them also but could not afford to go overseas for study even though NOWADAYS.. that is the best place to go for higher education. MUCH MUCH better than in the U.S.  Unfortunately, you have to have money to do so and NO, I know of NO scholarships, etc that would pay for it.. I went to the Universities in the U.S. but had NO money and had to work morning, noon, night and evenings and it was not easy

Surly there are tons of schools accepting students from all over, however, there are restrictions.\n\nFor example, you need to have a bank statement indicating that you can afford to live in the US for a year.  Which will have to include your tuition, books, living expenses and etc.  The amt is different depending on school.  \n\nSince you mentioned that you cannot afford the expensive tuition, you need a sponsor.  Are your grades good enough to apply for scholarship in China?  If not, you need an American family/company who's willing to sponsor you.\n\nOtherwise, I am not sure how you can come here.\n\nI hope that this is helpful to you.

This year I will have two International Exchange students in my home, one from Germany and the other from Norway.  I believe things like this help us all learn about each other and our cultures.  I have been looking online for places to volunteer (after the 2 are here) overseas and was very pleased to find many places (I thought you could only go Peace Corps if you know what I mean) that you can volunteer overseas for the price of paying your own transportation to and from and having your own spending money.  People will let you stay in their homes while you are volunteering from Nepal to Brazil to India.  All kinds of places.  Some are even "vacation" volunteering, do while on your vacation.  Gosh, just thinking about it sounds like so much fun and I can't wait to pick a place!!! :)  \n\nTwo great sites I have bookmarked for future reference.  I do have to say that as someone who can't afford to go flying places I did think this was an excellent way to learn about another country/people and be on vacation.  A win-win situation.

I am assuming you want to come to the US for your studies. I am afraid there is no right answer to your question. You need to figure out what area you're interested in (18th century lit., medieval eng., 19th cent. lit., american lit., cultural studies, literary criticism, women's and gender studies, bibliography...   the list goes on!!) and then figure out the colleges that have strong programs in your chosen area. You'll have to research the faculty members to see who's doing interesting research in your area, etc. I don't want to put you off, but when you apply here, you have to show the universities what YOU can offer THEM and not the other way around. Unless you have already thoroughly researched a program, it would be very hard to convince them.\n\nIt is extremely hard to get into English lang. and lit. programs. Very few have MA programs (most have 5 year MA+PhD programs). You might apply to comparative lit. programs - I think they are more welcoming to international students.

I just wanted to say...if you are interested in learning spanish you ought to study in Mexico. I stayed with a family and everything and went to La Universidad Internacional in Cuernavaca  I only stayed for 6 months and I am now bilingual, it was also my major in college..consider the study abroad..much faster easier and helps broaden your horizons!

I think you should come (stay in) America. There are so many great things you can do. America has educated and produced some of the worlds best thinkers. We have great extra curricular activities and hard-working proffesers and scholars who work all year around to make sure that the next genneration has what it needs to make a difference.

Well, if you're planning on working in the UK, I would suggest studying there and the same with the US.

"1) Who in here has a job/career that actually utilizes your college education/degree?" \nMine does. I am earning a BA in English and I tutor English to ESL students. I plan on teaching ESL when I graduate.\n\n"2) Did you get a job that you've always wanted (that's why you majored in the field to prepare yourself for it)?"\nWell, I didn't always want to be an ESL teacher. I started tutoring and found that I loved doing it. So, in the end, I did get the job I wanted, I just didn't know I would want it!\n\n"3) Is your current job right now the complete opposite of what your degree is for?"\nNo, this is completely in line with the experience I am getting from my classes.

Hello Anna, \n  You can try to apply for a job at Your current learning facility  - this is 1st step to obtain EAC  (employment authorization card )  . \n     After that and or at the present time,  You should advance  Your skills to the level , allowing You to apply and send resumes to USA employers  .  \n  You should be fine if You can perform job better than domestic employers, or apply for the job where not enough workers are on the market .

Hi i am studying in the UK, When i went to a law weekend, when i was 18 i was told that it is best to study up until 18 in the UK as our system is better. Then to study law in the US apparently your universities are better than ours (but the guy was an American professor!)\n\nOn employment i have no comparison, but I'm looking for work experience in the UK and its HARD! The US has a stronger litigation background so there are potentially more jobs as a lawyer there, especially in private client matters (eg. divorce/accident compensation)\n\nHope that helps.

I have lived over-seas my whole life.  Before we would ever move we would study the culture of that place before we decided that that is actually where we would move.  I think it's the same with learning the language.  You don't really have to go to the country to learn the language.  Trust me, sometimes it just doesn't work.  (If you want to learn German, going to Germany shouldn't be your first option if you want to learn the language.  You would try to talk to the people in German and they would answer you in English!  It was kind of their little way of saying don't even bother.) You should check out the culture and maybe try to speak a little bit of that language and see if you like it or not.  Otherwise, you just wasted a whole bunch of money on something you don't like and will never even use.

Skiboy has a very good answer. I would just add to clarify that you may directly contact the embassies of impoverished countries and express your desire to teach English in their country. Some won't be interested at all. Some will be very happy to hear from you, but won't pay you even for your flight over. If you want to get some sort of pay, the Peace Corps is your best option. Unless, as Skiboy says, you want to "spread the word." \n\nThere are a ton of organizations out there who hire English teachers, but they are for profit and therefore don't go to impoverished countries. I know of no charities who provide English teachers to impoverished countries.
