The demand for teachers is great in Asia
As of January 2017, the population in Asia was over 4 billion people. That is more than 50% of the world’s population.
It is therefore understandable why the largest job markets for TEFL/TESOL holders are in Asia. English is more than a language for non-English speakers. It is a skill. A skill they must spend years to learn. The level of English a person in an Asian country can speak will decide their wages and mobility level.
The demand for English will always be high in Asia; even with the rise in popularity of other languages, it will be sometime before we see English replaced as the world’s language –It certainly will not happen in our lifetime.
Moving to Asia
It is definitely possible for any native English speaker to move to Asia. However, each country has requirements that an aspirant worker must fulfill. Please look at the chart below to view these.
