 Posted: Sat Dec 30, 2006 9:31 pm Post subject: Job Hunt Timing in DF ? |
 |
|
| Hello! I am planning on moving to Mexico City this fall and am trying to pick an exact date. I know that the school year there begins in mid-August so I have no illusions about working at a regular school and am planning on seeking work with a language school. Would October be an okay time to find and begin work at language schools in DF? Or if it would it be too late in the year? I don't know if this will make a difference, but I will have a CELTA certificate and a BA (in Business) but very little classroom experience. |

| October would be perfectly fine. The only bad times here for gaining immediate employment at language schools are December and early April. |

| I've been trying to teach him, but he's not picking anything up. He insists that it's because I don't have the proper training. Maybe once I get a CELTA... |

Just like anything else, one simply needs the right bait to fish in the pond.
um, not that one should fish for elephants in a pond, however. |

Well, it seems my elephant friend might prefer a different kind of bait...
Yes, that is the same elephant. No, that is not me. |

Definitely get that training. Wouldn't want him to react like this one did.
