				| How competitive are the international schools to work for? I have taught elementary education for public schools for the past six years in the States. I would love to teach in Africa. I have not had much luck on researching teachers for international schools to get an understanding of the environment both academically and socially. |  |

				| The job market and conditions at international schools vary widely depending on region.  If you're most interested in Africa, I suggest that you post in the Africa board below for more focused info from people who are there. |  |

				| Ditto Spiral, though I hear from colleagues that there is not a lot of competition in Egypt and Tunisia (my guess is due to recent turmoil there) and Ghana. |  |
