My first job was teaching ESL in Brazil, back as a teen.
A few suggestions: avoid teaching in programs that are grammar/translation oriented. It is not only an outdated method, but much more time consuming, difficult and boring.
Now, as an aside, most colleges, even community colleges, won't pay much attention to the fact that you taught ESL unless you are applying for an ESL position. At best, it will be a nice bonus if you are evenly matched with someone else for a certain position. Without a PhD, you most likely would only get a tenure track job at community colleges or for profit colleges (and even then not in the better ones), or adjunct positions which nowadays are starting to resemble slave labor.
