It kind of depends on where you want to go tbh. Maybe there are forums or subreddits you can ask wrt the specifics? I did a CELTA in the UK, and then moved to Spain, but different places demand different qualifications. If you just want to get some money together and don’t mind living in hell for a while, look at places like Saudi Arabia.


Pros:

  • it’s the opposite of alienating
  • living abroad is an adventure
  • the money is good if you’re used to minimum wage

Cons:

  • the money isn’t that good
  • there isn’t really any sort of career progression
  • like everything else, it’s getting ruined by corporate consolidation and stupid tech products

I second this. I can only assume that our esteemed comrade doesn’t know what a BA is but saw the word ‘Arts’ and decided to have a snipe. As if having a BSc is somehow a guarantee of employment lol.

If you’re looking to make ends meet while you look for something better, have you tried employment agencies. I know you mentioned recruitment agencies, but I graduated just after the 2008 crash, and bottom level admin work though agencies was all that was really open to me. Then I fled the country and became a TEFL teacher 🤷


“One point three two”, because otherwise the question is ‘thirty two what’. Consider what happens if we put a zero on the end — does it become “one point three hundred and twenty” despite being exactly the same number?
