There are a lot of online options available. I went with Grand Canyon for my Masters. These people offer some of the specific classes they are likely looking for:

None of them (that I know of) are particularly cheap.

Try contacting the admin for the DoD FB page and asking to join or asking them to post something for you.

You MAY get an email saying the position has been filled but it wouldn't normally come until the person is mostly through the process, not just that they were offered and accepted the position. It's more likely that you do not get any communication after the referral unless you get a chance to interview.

Even if you are applying for overseas (currently located in the US) will the interview requests still come as late as the end of the school year (May and June)?
Thank you all for your responses. This is extremely helpful!

Yes, the lion's share of referrals/interviews for overseas seem to come in June-July with some coming in May and August and a smaller amount in September. After that the numbers decrease even more but they still keep happening all through the year.

Scholar and Haha, do you have any idea of how many elementary positions may still be vacant?
haha
Speaking for myself, there is just no way of telling right now. A large percentage of positions in the transfer round were elementary (I forget exactly how many but it was a sizable chunk) so those positions will have been filled and likely left similar sized holes behind them. Also, another chunk of ES positions will open up as military spouses wh...See More

And it will have everything like the common core on it? Or will it be individual links? like one link for math another fro science? Thank you again.
someday
It's one link for each subject area. So you have to go back to the curriculum main page, click on the subject, and then click on standards. There will be either a list of each grade level or like the ELA all the k-5 in one file.

I've been both, and have also taught in a few different international schools. In my opinion/experiences (which will likely vary from others) the job of a teacher is basically the same in many/most schools and environments. Some type of planning, followed by some type of instruction, followed by some type of assessment, then repeat and adjust as ne...See More

I can relate both my parents are retired Air force. I don't really remember much. I can understand it can be hard fort he kids, since they kinda don't really understand. Depends on the kid. I love traveling and since I was 9 I've wanted to be a teacher, so 18 years.

It means you and or your position are excess to the school's needs. Or it means that your school is closing and everyone is excess to DoDEA's needs.
If you are permanent (not on 2 year Provisional Status) DoDEA must find you a position somewhere in the world. Often they will place teachers who are still on Provisional Status but are not re...See More

I'm not really sure. Maybe someone in admin has a better idea. My understanding is that competency points are a result of some combination of your answers on the skills/activities/additional experience information areas of your EAS, your level of education and your years of experience.

In talking to Admin overseas and admin Stateside, they do it differently. Some pick one or two people from each category (high, mid, low points) and then interview. Some just pick random names, like my last principal did. He said he couldn't even tell who had more points, and that he was flooded with over 1000 names. He told me I was very lucky to ...See More
