Not sure about that Cara - I know of quite a few non-graduates from the UK in teaching schools here with Employment Visas. There's no harm in trying if the employer will give it a go - they can only say no.

The key thing to avoid is to come here on the promise that the employer will sort it out - many people do this, the employer persuades you to start working illegally, pays you much less than they promised and several months later it becomes clear that they never really had any intention of pushing the visa through. Since you've been working here illegally there's little you can do at that point. I have seen a few people in that situation too.

Having said that, on a quick Google, GEOS is a global company (and doesn't appear to be a franchise) and seems to have as good a reputation as any of the private langauge schools, so that probably won't be an issue.
