call centers, English institutes, esp. in Metro Manila, Baguio, and Cebu. There are tons of opportunities available, depending on your expertise. I can help you find your niche. Most people find jobs or work thru making contacts with friends, relatives, co-workers, or (my preference) just approaching people and introducing yourself as wanting to work or do business.

Didn't need work permit since I have dual-citizenship. However, if you want to be an employee, most companies will sponsor you and pay for your work permits, visas, etc. I advise working as an independent contractor in your own consulting business. Work under the radar whenever possible.
no need to take formal language courses. learn the local lingo (Taglish - Tagalog/English), some important daily phrases and vocabulary and you can get by well. Everyone speaks English even in the remote countryside and provinces. If you can speak English well, you can be King or Queen and earn immediate respect
check with locals, however always keep your financial status (as well as social status) to yourself. If you need help, I'm just a email or chat away! Mabuhay, Aloha, Salud, and Cheers!
