With your credentials, you should be looking at Teachaway. But, I do believe that they want face-to-face interviews. They do them around in various countries. It will certainly be the best paying for a certified teacher.

They normally have ads running here and you can check their website.

I am aware of teachaway and the other recruiters - but teachers have to pay alot of money to travel to the sites for interviews - add it it up - lots of money - plane fare, car rental, hotel, taking time off from work - and maybe no job afterwards - no wonder they are always interviewing = most people simply cannot afford to do all of that. Ditto for the job fairs - expensive.

Well... the truth is that this is how you get the high paying jobs in the schools teaching K-12. There are likely places that will hire you with no interview at all... but I doubt that you want to work there. Laughing

Other than that, all you can do is apply when you see an ad somewhere and come back here and check the place out if you get an offer. There are way too many very very bad employers in this part of the world. So, carefully check out any offers you may get.

Two sayings quickly come to mind here:

1.) It takes money to make money, and;

2.) Ya gotta pay if ya wanna play...

Search Associates costs money and she's already stated her opinion on that!

My job interview with UAEU was via videoconference. Surely that's more common these days...
