I'm interested in a PGA job, but I won't be teaching golf. I'm looking to teach calculus, business, science, IELTS, and computers to advanced students preparing to go to university in a western country. They are called middle school, but I understand they are actually what we call, "high school."

Can anyone further fill me in on the PGA program, the job, and working for the Edukeys company. I understand it's directly connected with the ministry of education. You can PM me if you don't want to say something publicly. I really need to get a more solid understanding and confidence in flying to the other side for this job considering I'm not loaded at the bank. I have my fingers crossed it's a good job I will enjoy and get on well in. I'm also looking to connect with other PGA teachers for advice and making new friends.

I have just been offered the same position -- did you accept the job, or receive any responses to your inquiry?

I taught in the Edukeys program. Students were great. Very smart and fun to work with. Most of the people who worked with them were solid. Only thing I didn't like was the location of the school and internet issues they wouldn't resolve. Gave notice, got release letter with no problem and moved on. I did like that it was real teaching with students who wanted to be there.
