"Hello!
I am a native English speaker, who also is fluent in Spanish. My goal is to be able to teach English here as a ESL teacher to the local community. I haven't done any collage, since I decided to travel instead."The ESL job market quite competitive in most parts of the US (as they are in most Anglophone countries). I can only give very general advice here as you give no information about regions - so I can only address the US as a whole. You might find a job somewhere with less than what I'm going to suggest.
ESL is education, and the better jobs (the ones that will actually come with a contract, health insurance, and regular benefits) will require not only a BA from an actual COLLEGE or university, but probably a related MA as well, along with a CELTA and some experience. An online quickie BA won't get you far in most places.
