In the United States, the term Caucasian has been mainly used to describe a group commonly called White Americans, as defined by the government and Census Bureau. |

| I'm assuming you mean discrimination as far as teaching? Some. Primary school will be pretty much off limits, parents want the Caucasian face. Middle school, high school, college, you'll have a better chance. Sad but true. Caucasian face with a pulse trumps a real teacher with a familiar face. |
I knew some people who were from the Philippines who taught at a primary school. It wasn't in a nice area, but it is possible. |
