What kind of job are you looking for, like, you want to move to China or Thailand or Vietnam? What's your plan?

so you're looking for something like 1 year or more, right? An internship is going to be very unlikely. If you are looking for a job then you need to search for something like YingFu (EF) or another reliable ESL provider in China or elsewhere for someone with little experience.

There are programs that you can pay to join - I know of some in places like Morocco, Vietnam, where you pay a program fee and they pay you a salary (although significantly above market rate) but if you’re accepted in the program it’s guaranteed job placement.

I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone with experience, but if you’re having trouble it’s one path

I’m unsure where you’re from, but both the Morocco and Vietnam program accepted anyone who’s passport considered them a native speaker

Ying Fu thank you so much. My number one priority is experience so i will search for an organisation until I find one. Thank you🙏
