Perhaps you could contact the Japan Students Association at University of Michigan (or another big univ.) and they can hook you up with a Japanese student who is looking to make a little money.

ask your school for some student exchange information. Now will you please pick my answer as the best answer so I can finally get 10 points?

There are two that I would look at.\n\nActually, there is ONE that I would recommend.  The first one that I thought of doesn't connect to schools in South Korea.  However, if you're qualified (Bachelor's degree and TESL certificate with supervised teaching practice) they have excellent schools (no crappy chain school selling school-made textbooks to students for $100 or anything like that).  This one is International House, and they are an affiliation of high-class language schools around the world.  They have schools in Vietnam, Malaysia and China if you're keen on those countries.  See the first link.\n\nThe second company, which does connect you to schools in South Korea, is called Footprints Recruiting.  They have year-round placements in Korea requiring only a Bachelor's degree (not TESL certificate).  If you complete the one-year contract you will get your airfare reimbursed, and most contracts include accomodation.

You can always check at a local rotary club. Also, colleges sometimes have summer exchanges, so check with local colleges also. If all else fails, check the internet. Some good sites are:\nwww.exchangestudents.org\nwww.twoworldsunited.com\nwww.pieusa.org\n\nI hope you find a great place to go! Good luck!

Inexpensive: Technically you can study till Highschool ( A levels/ higher Secondary) in a Government school for free ( some times even getting incentives if you are a girl student). non-vocational colleges are almost free ( consider this..1-2 US$ per month of total fees). vocational colleges: Engineering/Medical/management ( 50-100 US$ per month).\n\nOf course we must also consider the so called 'Public schools' ( no they are not government schools as you might assume..they are opposite..they are Private schools)..fees could be US$ 30-500/month, Private colleges ( Fees US$ 100-400 per month), private vocational colleges( Fees US$ 5000-10000 per year).\n\nEducation quality at college is more or less at par with the best.

No, not that program, although you can always Google it.   If you're planning to host a student or to be a hosted student, check out this site:    http://www.43things.com/things/view/73\nbecause it will give you insight into the exchange programs -- good and bad.  \nWe had a Chinese exchange student and were quite surprised that this student was the opposite of our stereotypes -- the reality in China is quite different than the fantasy.  Be sure to check out these programs thoroughly -- you might also search for blogs by people already studying in China.  Good luck.

Your school should have a faculty member in charge of exchanges.  See if they have any specifically geared toward your focus.

Implement a token economy!\n\nThis is heaps of fun - instead of giving verbal rewards or stickers or certificates for work, hand out paper money instead. Have students pay for routine things like using the computer or borrowing a book and then have a market day where students can spend their "money" on whatever they want.

Go to a cheaper college than transfer to Your choice college in Junior year.  I wish I wish I knew this expensive lesson before I got so many student loans.\n\nIn your case outside the US I don't know what education programs are available. You can apply to colleges here and the school themselves may offer you a scholarship.  If you are a good writer your essay can win you scholarships and grants.\n\nCheck on line for government programs, check the university websites to see what they offer as well. Most schools offer grants, loans, and work study but again I don't know how much they offer to non us citizens.\n\nIf there are good universities there check to see if any have a study aboard program then while you are here studying you can learn more about what options will work for you.

Well, there are many resources to find study abroad programs in the region that interest you. The Internet is your best source of information if you have time. Most universities also have a dedicated office to study abroad programs. The problem is that these counselors are biased. There are also counselors that are independent like myself who specialize in one geographic areas or one subject. There is a fee to their service but usually that service will be very helpful to find the right program for your or to jump start your research in the right direction. Unfortunately Ireland is not my area of concentration so I can't help you much there. However study abroad.com and google can be of a great help. \nRemember funding is available through your student loans and it is usually easier to get through your school. There are also scholarships but those are very limited. Spain and France are my areas and I usually suggest to my students to go SOLO with no middle man (STudy abroad programs and university sponsored programs). It is usually much cheaper for the same program and I strongly believe that you can pay for it from you summer job ( a six weeks in Spain can cost you around 2000 including flight food and stay while in most programs you have to pay 3500 just in tution).\nGood luck in your research, and contact me if you need help.

The Smithsonian and the Sierra Club both have programs like this.  You need to contact your local Sierra Club and ask them.  There is usually a charge for food and lodging.\n\nYou could also ask at your high school councilor for a summer program.
