Thinking about trying to go to Philippines for my first teaching contract.

Looking for advice on schools and anything else someone might have.

Cheers

i am perplexed as to how this is even a question.

i would not think twice about this if benefits were equal.

shanghai all the way lol

Just take a job in Brazil or Colombia ;)

Thank me later.

I wish I had your problem OP.

I am in the process of getting certified / licensed, no experience. Hope to have that finished by April or May.

I am very concerned about finding a job around that time. I really do not want to have to return to Asia to teach ESL for another 6-12 months waiting for Fall 15.

The same way everyone gets into it. Get certified and exhaust all your job searching options (fairs, agencies, direct emailing, networking, job boards, etc)

Be flexible starting out on location.

Thanks for the additions and info.

I wont have the luxury of being picky. ie no experience & starting the job hunt in spring / way late.

Same as the one for Latin America, feel free to add any that I left off or ones that I need to take off.

I am attempting to put together a list of International Schools in Latin America, South East Asia, and the Middle East.

I will be getting my license through an ACP come Spring and will be up against it to find a job so late. Plan is to email schools directly and check TES. Also potentially go to the summer job fair.

Anyways here is some of what I put together for Latin America. Feel free to add other schools I left off or let me know if one of the schools is not an International School and needs to be taken off.

newchapter.

how much could one save in a year with that schools / your package?

not sure I could put up with the ME to only save "something". would need to be a nice / considerable something lol

If you have your license or certification than dont even bother going to UK.

Get a third tier school in some country.

Hell to the naw for working in Lybia or any other of those extreme Islamist countries.

how did you get the job? fair or direct emails?

Do middle school teachers deal with DP?

And for a middle school teacher does IB experience mean MYP?

Sorry for all the questions.

So is IB experience not as important for middle school teachers? A bit confused on MYP/IB/DP.

If you are blonde you might get a lot of attention from the men. That can be good or bad.

Brazil is one of my favorite countries.

How did you apply to the school? See opening on recruiting / job website or simply apply directly to the school?
