I’d like to add that I also completed my MA completely online from a very reputable brick and mortal school in the states WHICH ALSO allowed me to take a praxis exam to qualify for an ANCILLARY STATE LICENSE for K-12 ESOL certification… This WOULD NOT allow me to walk into a school and teach in the states immediately, but the qualification DOES work in Taiwan, and my masters also was fully accepted… To be fair, if you’re willing to teach outside of Taipei and Taichung cities, the MOE is relatively adept at NOT asking certain questions about your methods of acquisition if it means you’re happy to work in the countryside… That’s my only experience with MOE but I had no trouble at all with my masters or my ESOL certification.
