Thank you PsyGuy!!

Let's say you're certified to teach history.

You teach in China for two years, with history being only half of what you teach; you also teach English.

When applying at a better school as a history teacher, would future employers think, "Hm, but since you weren't full-time history, it's not actually two years of experience, more like only half that"

?

Whoops y'all, I meant to type 13000 - 14000 RMB, not 1300 - 1400. Edited. Haha.

Note that I was a young, single guy too.

Look up PsyGuy's posts about going rogue. Here's a thread;

For two years, I lived in Shanghai on a salary of between 13000 - 14000 RMB a month, with a 5000 USD bonus at the end of the year.

Free housing, and I didn't go out to clubs often. Took the metro and not a taxi, etc.

After two years, saved 24,000 USD.

oops, double post

Thank you so much PsyGuy. I am very much appreciative of your advice here, as well as all over your other posts.

I'll take anything I can get!! . . as long as I get to gain experience teaching the subject I am certified in. China, ME, Africa . . no care!

I taught English and Art in Shanghai for two years.

Problem is, although I have two years of international school experience, it was pre-certification, and teaching other subjects . . .

Still go rogue for Search Associates and not UNI?

Me: no post-certification experience, Physical Education (not in demand, right?)

Thank you PsyGuy!!!

Title says it all. Has anyone ever missed a deadline for a fair, but had experience emailing an attending school and requesting to have an interview in the accommodating hotel or anything like that?

Already a member . . . thank you for the input ShadowJack!

My two years of full-time IT experience are in a field different than what I am certified in, so Search Associates recommended that I save my money.

Many job postings on IS websites recommend joining a fair.

It's too late to sign up for UNI.



SO, MY QUESTION IS, In regards to the IS websites that ask you what fair you are attending, would I be automatically rejected by not attending a fair?

[quote="julie33"]ChoirGuy, can you expand on what you meant by the "fa piao" culture and what you claim receipts for, and how?[/quote]

Yes, please elaborate ChoirGuy!

A documentary to be streamed on Netflix would be better.

I taught at an International school in Shanghai for two years, English and Art. I had no teaching certification.

I will be certified in May 2013 for Physical Education (master's degree).

Although my two years experience is in a field that I did not teach in, would I still be competitive enough to find a job teaching PE, at least in China or in the Middle East?

Thanks!!
