If you want to "do it the right way" then being an actual qualified teacher with a teaching license is the best way to be employed abroad while earning a good salary. Just a degree and a certificate will regulate you to being an ALT only or being employed in English conversation schools.
Agreed, that’s why I stated that I wanted to get my degree in teaching. From my understanding in most Asian countries they require a TEFL even if you are a licensed teacher in the US. Also, in most European countries they require a CELTA even if you are a licensed teacher in the US. Since I am a EU citizen I wouldn’t need the CELTA.

They have 10 different degrees that all lead to licensure, and I think you can do all of your GE's and then enroll and be done including student teaching in a year.
I wasn’t aware, I look into it. Thank you!
