Hi all, could someone please shed some light on what I am doing wrong...?
I have been searching for jobs since the beginning of February. I know that I was a bit late to the party but schools were still advertising so I applied... but I never heard back from any of them! I feel so disheartened I could cry. I really want to move away and have a fresh start. I have struggled in the UK as a single parent and after reading all the amazing stories of people teaching abroad, I thought I could possibly have a better quality of life somewhere else. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I am in my 3rd year of teaching (not a core subject) - could that be the issue? Lack of experience?
In my cover letter I write about my passion for the subject, what a great colleague I am ; I talk about my subject knowledge and the fact that I am always expanding it; I also talk about the importance of education to bridge the attainment gap and what I do to help students achieve their full potential...
What am I missing?
Is there anything that international schools are particularly looking for??
