I have been rejected from all the jobs I applied for. Including Disney. Im getting bored and miserable. I was told I should move and experience new things. I know 2 people that taught English in Thailand and japan. They had fun and traveled to exotic places.
Idk if I can teach though. i cant talk for too long or yell. I dont really want to teach kids english. But I do want to travel to Spain and enjoy myself on beaches, explore ruins, etc. You can travel to other parts Europe as well. Also maybe hook up with European women too. Should I go for it? I feel like I will never accomplish anything here ( be a frat star and get with sorority girls) . maybe this will be a great experience?
BR is my hometown but I feel like Im wasting away here

This is a no brainer. If you don't have anything to keep you here, go for it.

You need to speak the native language to be able to teach English. And also not be a frick up.

Go teach in Afghanistan.

This will not be something you're capable of doing.

BNSF is hiring like crazy right now. Conductors make bank if losing most if your personal life, being on call 24/7, and dealing with scummy management is something you are ok with then apply.
You don't even have to be on the road, you can work the yard and still pull in around 65 to 80k with a set schedule

You have to know the English language. Can you handle that?

I know an English teacher at New Iberia Senior High School, if that counts?

So how will you communicate with your students before you've taught them English?

they wont hire you to teach english if they must first teach you to speak their language first 
Posted on 10/3/18 at 1:56 pm to Boo Krewe
Seriously, what do you have to offer? Your posts make you sound like a pervy Eeyore.

Your students likely know "some" english, plus I am fairly certain you don't actually start out really doing the teaching. You are more like a teachers aid that the instructor can show off to the class like, "look, this is how an actual American speaks english!"

Damn. Yea your SOL for 6 months. But if you do apply again make sure you include a resume and cover letter in your app and also make sure you remember ti do the personality test within 72 hours of applying. The interview isn't hard either.
Also you don't have to apply for a local terminal. You can do your training anywhere on the former Burlington Northern side and as long as uts part of the NH99 seniority roster you can go anywhere in the NH99 seniority district where you can hold. The former Santa Fe side has a 5 year hold down for new hires. The BN side doesn't.

If all you are seeking is foreign poon, join the Navy. For a couple of bucks you can get a Filipino whore to do anything.

You are wrong baw. You do not have to know their language. Need Degree and ESL Certificate, knowing the host countries lingo is a bonus. It will get you picked up faster but not need.
OP. There are a lot of logistics to going abroad baw.
