If you're interested in travel & speak fluent English, I have heard that is it possible to make excellent money teaching English, even without any kind of credentials. I personally only tutor 1 child because it is all I have time for, but I make about 125 RMB per hour, which translates to about $20 US. While my pay is not great (for the US), I have heard that if you get a group of 8 or so kids together & teach them in bulk, you can make upwards of 800 RMB per hour (~$127 US). This would also be tax free. Not quite on par with the high-end college-educated call girl, but I'm guessing most of us aren't suited to be one of those.
Yvain taught english in Japan with minimal/no certification and blogged about it. It seemed to work pretty well.
Did he ever write about what happened in Japan? It just seems to stop after he gets the job.
At any rate, the teaching English market has become more competitive since 2006.
