Re: Cost Effective Online Masters at ACE

I got my Masters of Education at ACE a few years ago. I really liked the platform and the whole program. And it is recognized for teaching in public school boards in Canada.

Is there a demand for autism specialists?

Is anyone out there teaching autistic students? How are class sizes and resources? Is that demand increasing?

Re: Moving Home Success Stories?

I moved back home too in 2019 to Ontario, Canada. I'm supply teaching, there's lots of it. And I'm applying to contracts and long term supply which pays at grid salary. No regrets. I'm at the top of the payscale and the salary is amazing. The medical benefits are outstanding for teachers in Ontario. The pension is also amazing though I won't get enough years in to get a nice one. Oh well, no regrets as live abroad was so good. I do miss being abroad, the life and school experiences. But there's a lot I don't miss: I find gossip and backstabbing in Ontario nowhere near to what it was abroad. We also don't get meetinged to death. I was at some good schools but the salary was never as good as here. No way the medical benefits were as good as here and of course no pension. There's good job security and holidays.
What I would say though is teaching in Canada right out of teachers college is a mistake. The salary is crap. My board accepts 10 years of teaching abroad experience which put me right at the top of the payscale. My advice would be to teach abroad for 10 years and have a blast then move back home but make sure you get that experience documented and get it in writing your board will accept that experience for the pay grid.

Virtual/Online teaching opportunities?

Is anyone aware of any schools anywhere in the world seeking virtual/online K-12 teachers? Not ESL schools. Cheers.
