Thank you so much!

If I got a Master of Arts in the Teaching of Languages with an emphasis in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages would that count? Or would it have to be some other type of teaching certificate? Would my experience need to be in my home country or could I work at a language school or regular school overseas?

Could anyone tell me a general outline of what requirements a decent international school has for an EAL teacher. I'm about to graduate uni (my major is anthropology) and I have a TEFL certificate (120 hours with approx. 24 hours of teacher pracs). Would I have to go get a postgrad degree in education? I would appreciate any information!
