I have been in the same situation. I was offered a vice principal position at a truly awful school and low pay. I am so glad that I did not take it, it kind of comes down to how you can change the school.....in my case I think that in the end I would have been fired....no matter how hard I worked

If your mom has passed.... i am sincerely sorry..... Just please send info that you can confirm.

Thanks for the previous post.... i just want teachers to make an informed choice...whoever posts something that I know is wrong, from first hand experience I will try and clarify.

If some newbie makes a bad choice based on bad information and their lack of checking sources- too bad, so sad, love dad.[/quote]

Wow, is that really how you feel? I am not a "cry baby", but I will not sit by while "information" is given about schools is just plain false. I have been teaching internationally for 17 years and have had a range of experiences, I do feel an obligation to help others make a most informed choice. I don't see how that is whining and complaining.

This comment and others by this poster about women in general are offensive and belong on a loser singles website, not on one about international education.

Alas, I am in fact just a lowly teacher PsyGuy......

Thanks lifeisnotsobad.....don't worry I'm done.

Bottom line....you don't know what you are talking about.

OMG.....PsyGuy....I am currently sitting at my desk before work at ACS Doha. The elementary classes are doubling this year, hence the need for new teachers. There will be a new grade 9 next year, hence the need for new teachers. This is not "minor expansion". There are 4 teachers leaving this year for various reasons......4......very low turnover. The school is a very pleasant place to work, you are provided with a laptop and iphone, teachers are valued and trusted here. The bottom line PsyGuy is that you may be doing damage....your comments about ACS have nothing to do with "opinion" and everything to do with misinformation.

Thanks so much BocaJrs, that was very useful. It really is a beautiful place.

Ok.....now does anyone have any experience with the International School of Moshi? Thanks

I have an interview with them today. Does anyone have direct experience with the school?

Psyguy, please speak not of what you know not of....there may be real consequences for people.

I work at ACS Doha and this is the FIRST year of operation. Turnover is very low, there are many jobs listed because as stated in another post the school is expanding. The pay is not great, but the school is a pleasant place to work.
