Do I need to speak the native language of the country Id like to teach in?
You dont need to speak the local language in order to teach English, in fact many schools prefer that you only speak English in the classroom as its the best way for your students to learn. As with any sort of travel, learning even a few phrases of the local language will enhance your time outside of the classroom and some schools may even provide you with free language lessons to help with this.
