it is.
Far more people can leave the US than cannot leave the US.
i suggest leaving.
it's better outside.
aside from being a native English speaker, you don't need any.
The school will provide the curriculum, training, you'll get to shadow a teacher for a few days and you'll have an assistant in class to wrangle the students, so all you have to do is speak English in a native accent for 20 minutes at a time.
you can also watch any number of YouTube videos to learn what teaching English is like, or you can choose from hundreds of other remote jobs If you don't want to teach.
as long as you make a few hundred a month, you can survive comfortably in Southeast Asia.
hostels are $100 a month, 200 a month for food is enough.
If you're making 500 usd a month, you can get a private place for $250 or $300, and keep the same food budget.
I suggest going to Southeast Asia instead. tickets are a couple hundred, everybody is really cool about genders and pretty much everything else there, everything is cheap, you can live indefinitely on tourist visas and if you need money you can always teach English.
