I have about 3 semesters left at university in the USA, and I am trying to think about what I want to do afterwards. I recently studied abroad in Spain (I'm majoring in Spanish, and Linguistics) and while studying there I traveled around Europe, and absolutely loved Munich. I'm seriously considering moving there after I graduate, but I was hoping to receive some feedback on the idea. I don't imagine that a degree in Spanish will benefit me much in
Munich, but I have typically always done well in English, and I want (and plan) to learn German as soon as I can. As of right now I have just about had it with all forms of formal education, at least here in the states, and I have absolutely zero desire to do any sort of graduate/professional studies UNLESS it can significantly benefit me abroad. I do plan on getting TESOL/TEFL certified before I go over there, so if at the very least, I can teach English to get by on.
Now to a more specific question: Would you suggest some sort of advanced (i.e. graduate) studies, or would a TESOL certificate + a helluva lotta determination be enough for me to make something of myself over there? I'm a quick learner, hard worker, and I adapt to new surroundings well. Thanks in advance for any replies!
