I am glad that I found this chat. I am in the very early stages of applying for the DODD. I am a teacher in Texas, certified to teach EC-6, as well as Special Education EC-12. Just have a few questions if someone can help.
1. If you are certified in your state, are there any other exams that need to be taken to qualif...See More

Hi.
1-DoDEA does not have any exams. Certification is based mainly on having the required college credits, state licensing etc.
2-DoDEA discontinued the job fairs 5 years ago. I think I attended the last one.
3- Yes in most situations.
4- Do your best to maximize your certification areas. If your state allows to...See More

It shouldn't, depending on the details. In general, bad credit even for the teaching candidate doesn't seem to mean automatic rejection (although defaulted student loans held by the gov't, IRS issues could be problematic to some degree).

After a 30 minute delay due to a telephone dialing problem from Cuba, I started trying different numbers and prefix codes. Finally, an email came through giving the number to call Guantanamo Bay. The telephone circuits in Guantanamo Bay are defined as being in Virginia with a 757 US area code..

The challenging part is trying to accomplish all that needs to be done while also acclimating to being in a new school. There's got to be a better way to get newbies started, but I'm floundering through it one step at a time AND I'm way closer to being done with it all than I was a month ago! I love the job though. The kids are great and not hard t...See More

Some things I learned this summer regarding UB: You will most likely need dishes and pans unless you can live in the hotel until your things arrive. Even like hangers and a laundry basket or a trash can. Obviously, you can go and buy that kind of stuff, but if you are shipping it anyway. It can really add up: sheets, pillows, towels, etc. Make sure...See More

It's a good location. Any of the bases in the vicinity of Tokyo would be great postings.

I am in China teaching ESL. "Global Times" (the official government newspaper) said that if US first strikes North Korea, China will come to North Korea's defense. However, if North Korea attacks US territory first, then China will declare itself neutral.

Hi Heather! I am also interviewing for a teaching position with the Sampson school next week. I only received an email request -- never saw the usual EAS notification that I was even being considered. The email did not say what the position was for, but that's okay. If the school called me, I guess they already know I have whatever cert they are lo...See More

I didn't get the normal eas notification either. Cuba seems like a pretty amazing place. I am super excited for the interview!

1. I did not need to to anything additional regarding certification. I just uploaded my SBEC record and it was accepted. 2. I did not attend a job fair. After I applied and was found qualified, I received referrals to 2 different schools I emailed ...See More
