MA in TESOL online/distance learning?
By/Re:Mary <mbgainey121@gmail.com>

I considered doing a master's for two years at a physical university in the present but after a recent visit to South Korea, I don't want to put off moving there. I have looked into MA programs online but want to figure out how to avoid the non-reputable programs. Furthermore, I have tried to research distance learning but it has proven to be a little difficult. I want to know if it would be even possible for me to be living in Korea but attending a physical American university online. I am more at ease knowing my degree came from a real university. A few unis I've seen require some sort of on campus attendance at some point. Which kind of defeats the purpose of distance learning...

Ideally a year from now I want to accept a teaching job at a public school in South Korea with just my bachelor's and tefl degree in tow. I'd like to attend an American university (I'm also open to British/Australian) in an online format/distance learning and need to know if this is possible. I also need to know how the financial side of things may work in terms of paying for it when I'm in another country on the other side of the world.

Anyone out there? Much appreciated.
