For those of you who's 22-25, recent graduate and you want to see and check out the experience, DEFINITELY go for it. It'll be a great eye opener. The money you make means NOTHING because you'll really enjoy it and you'll never look back.

Now, if you're 25, and you're a guy with a decent career oriented mindset, it'll be highly unlikely you'll go and teach english (eg/ comp sci major, doctors etc...).

Spoon is right, for a lot of guys, who are really goal oriented, will grad from UBC and SFU and then quickly get a job, work a few years, earned a great reputation and this teaching english opportunity won't be so high on your list.

I know someone who went when he's 26 + for 3 years, he came back into the work force and it's was really hard to explain to the employer on teaching english bit.

Yeah ive thought of that, which is why intend to stay there for 4 months at first, if I decide to continue ill extend that time. I also plan to go as a university co op student so in a sense, ill be less on my own
