Is WGU legit? What are the perceptions of WGU program? How do potential ISs view graduates from this school?

I read somewhere where that an average salary today for International teachers is 32K per year. I made that amount 9 years ago. Is this the right number (32K)?

Thanks PsyGuy

Should I get an MBA or an MEd? I want to get an MBA because it will expand my knowledge in different subject area. Will this have any bearing on my “pay scale? I already have two bachelors; one in Education and other in Psychology.

Is there a different between IB Certificate in Teaching and Learning and IB Workshop Certificate? Which carries more weight? Also in terms of cost and duration, which cost more and which takes longer to complete. Is there a preference of one over the other by the prospective employer?

All, thanks for all your advices and insights.

Is it worth it to take a year off to pursue a master degree? I am 50 year old, single with no dependents. Also, another question for those who already completed their master degree while working. How did you do it? I tried and found it too overwhelming.

Anyone has any information about relieve international teachers or support international teachers (especially in South East Asia)? Is teaching licensed required? What is the pay scale? Are they needed? What are the processes involved in getting the position? What are they looking for? Any visa help? Housing or any other benefits?
