Have you done the 'Culture Course' yet?

I'm planning on coming in March, just graduated with a Bachelor of Education in april this year.... I'm not taking a tefl course. You have 8 years experience....

Yeah but a TEFL is still good to add to your working teaching arsenal just in case a school requires it, plus it's only about $300 so really not a big investment. Now, where do I get this work permit? The Ministry of Education?

The school will do it for you.

Yea that is true to add for experience, but for now I'm not worrying about it. And 300? I seen ones that were more like 800-1000, taken in thailand. Thats with classroom experience etc. Idk, I'm just gonna see how it goes.
