I've taken University of Phoenix classes. They are quite pricey compared to webteaching.com. But webteaching may not offer the classes you need.

Yes. There was one posted recently in USA Jobs, but it may have already been filled.

They do happen but are relatively rare compared to many other positions. Often, current teachers like to be considered for those positions when they want to stay with DoDEA but maybe get a break from the classroom (and they have the correct certs of course).
I would say maybe a few each year go to stateside hiring.

Positions are not posted, so unless we know personally of announced positions our our own districts, we don't know. Positions are usually posted internally before being filled from outside the local area.

It's not exactly a hot topic of conversation that people share about themselves but I have know people in the past who were hired with significant credit/financial issues, including past bankruptcies, debts, defaulted loans etc.

I appreciate your replies. Thanks for the heads up about the long wait for well qualified teachers. As far as state cert, I still have to complete a professional experience or internship (unpaid/recent and supervised) and complete the Praxis tests.

Do not give up. You have made it this far. Keep plugging away. You may want to try to get a stateside job in a location where they are hiring teachers before they are certified, so you can start getting classroom experience that much sooner. However, if you are in a good program and like where you work, just stick to what you have been doing.

Well, you could do what I have noticed several ex-PATs doing -- come to China to teach ESL classes. The jobs are aplenty, but it is easy to get burned without a reputable guide. Prior knowledge of ESL and Chinese is not required. Typical salary is 20,000 RMB + free housing + board for a full-time 20 hour work week.. Search ESL China for Mainland an...See More

I mean to say that I believe it is an enduring post, but even if it is not, another position would be found for you if the one you have is not longer needed.
HelpOthers
...no longer needed. I'm tired... LOL. Congratulations and good luck. If you do not get it, you still have other great plans.

If they have a K-6 position to fill, they may at that point check to see if you are qualified. However, people living in the local community often have this certification, so being sent overseas for a K-6 is more rare than for other positions, but not impossible.

Thank you so much, this is the site I applied on. The job I applied for through USA jobs, specifically said to apply through USA jobs. Either way, I am qualified on EAS for the same job field, as well as general education jobs.

Thank you, Leo, I had not seen the positions that indicated not to bother applying through USA Jobs. I still suggest people set up automated e-mails or check USA Jobs regularly in case this ever changes for the teaching positions. I know I have seen some teaching positions posted in USA Jobs where the applicant was expected to apply through USA Job...See More

Your teaching experience and education are just fine to be considered for a teaching position with DoDEA. The issue may be with your area of certification. SS is a fairly competitive field with many qualified candidates for a limited number of positions. Many SS teachers end up teaching at some other classes, so principals often favor candidates wi...See More

There are very few stateside DoDEA high schools. This is something to consider. You may want to review where the high schools are located.
You will be credited up to 5 years of teaching experience in the stateside DoDEA schools, so you could start on step 5 if you have the employment verification forms completed to reflect your experience...See More
