Has anyone used an employment agency to find you work as an English teacher in Asia?

Are they trustworthy?

If yes, were they any good? Do you have any you would recommend?

I have looked at Reachtoteach and what they offer seems very reasonable, i am just afraid there will be a catch somewhere!

Thanks

Hi Simon

Where are you planning to work? For some countries you don't really need to go through an agency as you can arrange your own work.

Hi Simon,

I've been teaching in Thailand for almost a year now, I did use an agency teachtravelasia.com, but after getting to know the procedures there is really no need, the same applies for Vietnam and India I believe. Things start getting a little sticky when you consider Hong Kong etc... it really depends if you want to make money or get the experience and see Asia.
