When teaching Adults, most hiring directors or employers would like to see at least a full-year of ELT experience as well as some sort of ESL certification or credential.
If a potential employer doesn't ask for these, you can be pretty sure the program is not necessarily focused on the quality of the teaching.
Some Koreans look for master degrees period for jobs teaching adults... there are a couple reasons for this, neither is necessarily a good one.
- A Masters may suggest that you are more mature and therefore may be more suited to teaching older students.
- There is a certain prestige attached to being able to say that their teaching faculty have Masters degrees.

“Footprints Recruiting provided me with generous support in securing teaching employment in Taiwan. As a new comer to Taichung, Taiwan, Footprints staff were very accommodating in aiding my transition between Aussie living to Taiwanese living! The organization provided advice and support, and offered a position that suited me. Footprints also helped by providing support with travel/visa logistics, which was a great help. There is enough to think about when packing off to a new country, let alone what happens when you arrive. I was picked up at the airport and taken to a school which has great resources. I am pleased to have worked with Footprints.
