Two conflicting teaching jobs (what should I do?)?We Answered:
Hmmm... I would get the teacher assistant position. Aside from getting you experience in an academic classroom setting, it will get your foot in the door: the principal will get to know you, how you work etc and then when there is a vacant position, you just might be at the top of the list.... or if not the principal might be able to serve as a reference if there is a vacancy in another school or district. I would go for the assistant teacher. That's actually what I did do :)Roland Said:
Can full time school teachers in U.K. be supply teachers as well?We Answered:
If you work as a full-time teacher, then you can't be available to work as a supply teacher at the same time. The only supply work you could do, would be evening classes in a local college. My belief is that the head of the school where you have your full-time job would need to be aware of your supply job, or of your intention to do a second job, as full-time teachers often have to make themselves available outside of regular school hours (Parents' Evenings, etc). If you're going to the UK from overseas, it would be better to get settled into the full-time job and new environnment before thinking of taking-on a second job.Adam Said:
Should I look for a full time Teaching Job or work supply til easter?We Answered:
Supply can be a good stop-gap - but a friend of mine has hardly worked at all this term - only a few days.Depends on the area, and your level (my friend is secondary trained).
I would also recommend signing with several agencies, not just one.

Is there a good place to move to with teaching jobs where the winters are fairly mild and summers not too hot?We Answered:
Are you inthe USA?Hmmm... There's still some cheap land in the Carolinas and the population is going up. They should be in need of teachers.
Washington DC suburbs are also in need to teachers due to the growing population, but land is not cheap in the areas.
Arizona might be a little hotter, but they have a booming population and are in need of teachers. Land is not too expensive in many parts of that state.
Stay away from California (real estate prices are way too high)... Don't ever come up here to NY unless you want to be robbed by the tax man..... Not many jobs in the suburbs of the older, northern, industrial cities....
...just some of my thoughts. Good luck to you!

I just got a new teaching job at a preschool and I start Monday. I admit I'm a little nervous about starting ?We Answered:
Is this a public or private school? Sounds like a private school.I don't mean to scare you but if I were you I'd get another teaching position where you have Union protection.All new teachers are nervous.You are not alone so don't doubt yourself! This Director does not sound too supportive. Is this your first year of teaching? What credentials do you have? Really, as a former teacher of 35 years I am telling you this job sounds like it could be trouble, especially if you are not confident in yourself as of yet ( Again, this is normal). New teachers need all the training and support they can get. That support should come not only from the administration but from a mentor, also. Supplies are very expensive. It doesn't sound like your Director is communicating what you should be doing to acquire your supplies. I honestly can tell you the only advice I would give you is to leave the job before you start. You don't want any bad rap on your references for the future. Even if you have to work in retail for awhile while you look for another teaching job.Get a position in the Public School System.
If you are not certified many districts are offering tuition assistance as some areas of the US are beginning to show a teacher shortage.

SUPPLY TEACHING in Ontario, can it work?We Answered:
I am not familiar with Ontario.However, teaching supply is a good idea. The best idea is to get a long term supply job, if at all possible. Remember supply teaching does not pay well and you only get paid on days you work.
My other suggestion is to move where there are jobs.
