I get this asked all the time from prospective teachers. I believe that it can be, but for most people they teach for a few years and have a great time doing it. There are ways to make teaching English abroad a lifelong career, but I think it’s better to take it a year or two at a time and see how it goes. Teaching English abroad is a fantastic experience. This can segue into a potentially lucrative career, but I wouldn’t plan so fare down the road. If you are thinking of teaching abroad, give yourself a year and then decide whether to continue after that.
