Question Asian appearance

Hi, i'm new to this site forum and to the english teaching abroad thing and so I wanted to ask you guys a couple of questions.

I'm originally from south korea but i came to australia when i was 2 yrs old and have been here all my life (I'm 22 now), and i am an australian citizen... I have a bachelors degree in fine arts and i am now planning to to an TEFL i-to-i online and weekend course so that i can teach in Korea. I was wondering if I'll still be able to get good offers? Because i heard people there want someone with western appearance? I'm just curious to whether to pursue this or not... as the course i graduated from seems to have limited jobs here in Sydney.

Any replies would be great!!

Cheers!

Asian faces teaching English

There are many English teachers that come from an Asian background. Taiwan is a bit more fussy than other countries, but with a bit of determination, based on your background, there will still be many teaching opportunities for you.
