Requirements to Teach in Singapore
Currently, teachers that are going to Singapore through the Reach To Teach program do not need a TEFL certification. You do, however, need a degree, and unlike most countries in Asia it should be in something related to English or teaching you might be able to get away with another type of degree if you are lucky and have experience. A BA in English is perfect, as is anything in Linguistics or Education.
If you've got a degree in any of these fields, teaching English in Singapore could be just the opportunity that you've been looking for!
