I a young South African and have givien up work in the UK to travel and will be in Laos sometime towards the end of this year (August/September). I dont want to be tourists but want to experience the real thing.I am a professional and can turn my hand to anything and really want to live and work for a few months. I have a postgrad in Psychology and English literature and my work in the UK has made me able to handle any new challenge. Can anyone help me or offer advice?

Hi. Without meaning to sound nasty: Teaching for "a few months" is doing your students a great disservice. You would need to commit to a school for a year or a minimum of 6 months. Secondly, do you have teaching qualifications? Have you taught before. We frequently see people want to earn money and the think teaching is an easy option. It is not and unless you are experienced, particularly in ESL, again you are doing students a disservice.
Having said this, even if you have teaching qualifications, it is not easy to get a job in Laos unless you are actually here. Should you want to work, I suggest you come and approach the language schools and see what is available. I can tell you now that the pay will be poor.
