Right now I saw at least 4 schools with double PE vacancies on TIEonline. So you should at least give it a try.

South America

What is a typical package for this region?
Can a teaching couple with 2 children save anything in South America? Can we earn enough to cover some debts that we already have?

Thanks Shad! We haven't ruled out ME but I am concerned with not landing in an entirely horrible school there. We are actually open to every place except Africa.

Teaching Couple- Requesting Information

Hello! We are just getting started with this process and have a few questions. First here is some information about us:

Mrs. Beachfam
40 years old
BS Family Relations and Human Development
Certified Elementary Ed. Prek-6
Teaching 12 years in US Kindergarten previous experience in PreSchool.
Masters in Social Work
Team Leader

Mr. Beachfam
45 years old
Bachelor in Physical Education
Teaching 14 years in US Elementary PE previous High School experience 2 years
Certified K-12 Physical Education and Health
Coaching Experience Soccer, Baseball, Softball (but capable of coaching others too)
Masters in Teaching and Learning

We have 2 children ages 6 and 11. We are very flexible about location but we have some debts at home that we would need to be able to cover so SE Asia is at the top of our list.

Please feel free to comment on our marketability but I also have some questions:

When applying as a teaching couple do we each make our own CV and then e-mail them together with a single coverletter?

If we use SA do we make a single account or do we have to buy 2 accounts?

Is SA our best our best chance at trying to find a postion? Could we find a position without using an agency?

Thanks for answering my many questions and helping us get started!
