Advice on getting a job overseas

2 replies

LaProfesora · 10/04/2020 10:09

Good morning! I am looking into moving abroad (Middle East/Far East) and teaching in one of the international schools. Could those of you who have experience of working overseas please give me some insight on what schols look for? In my personal statement I mention things like: I'm a good team player and my colleagues can rely on me, I have fantastic subject knowledge, my year 11 exam results were really good last year, I set up and run my own extracurricular activities, I attend CPD to improve my subject knowledge (in another subject that I teach) and I have also started mentoring student teachers.
I would be very grateful for any tips you could give me Smile Is there anything else that I should be mentioning?

Anything cultural or showing open mindedness or respect to rules, any experience of working or studying away.

Thank you for your reply!
I studied away as a teenager and as a uni student - I mentioned this in my personal statement.
I am open minded - not sure how I could show it in my statement though...? 🤔 any advice? Smile
