Only every two years, even in hardship locations, like administrators.

I agree with haha. The advantage is that once you have 5 years of experience outside DoDEA, those DoDEA years and your start date with DoDEA help you. Stateside only 5 years of non-DoDEA experience help with the pay scale. 10 years for overseas. So, especially after you have 10 years of experience, you want to start adding DoDEA years to help with ...See More

Teachers in DoDEA-Americas are generally happier with their jobs than the average American teacher (but that fact suffers from selection bias).
Teachers in DoDEA-Americas don't often resign to work for public schools in NY, GA, KY, or anywhere else. That says a lot.
When you work for DoDEA-Americas, you can leave for an overseas p...See More

Well, what is your plan/goal if you do not teach for DoDEA? If you want to become a teacher, then focus on the requirements for whatever state you see yourself living/teaching. A teacher preparation program of some kind would definitely be useful. It may or may not require a full education major.

What do you know about Education as a career?
It's time to take a crash course, before you get in too deep.
Talk to family members now. There must be Aunts and cousins in the next county who are school teachers, You need to sit those folks down and drain them for info.

I am sure this has been posted plenty of times, but I was curious if anything has changed in the midst of covid. I am currently a first year middle school math teacher at an international school. I am certified to teach all levels of math and I will be IBMYP certified by the end of the school year. Seeing as this is my first yea...See More

I noticed you said that you are teaching internationally. Just be aware that if you are hired you would most likely not receive housing or other benefits that other new hires are entitled to. These is a reg on it, that others might be able to explain better. The short of it is if you are living overseas and are hired then you are considered a local...See More

Chase the Avid thing. That's ok. But even Avid AND Cheerleading to unlikely to change anything. Because we're ignoring the elephant in the room.
Experience (The total you!).
With or without Avid (and even Cheerleading) you are unlikely to get hired in the next few years. So be careful how you spend the next few years.

I've seen a lot of ESL postings on USA Jobs recently. It seems that not a lot of people have it and it's hard to find people with it and the right other combination of certs. Check to make sure you have all the necessary courses for ESL- it's not just a test in DoDEA.
Experience matters, but so does the combination of certs. If you have th...See More

Hope you all are doing well. I have my first interview tomorrow after being referred all year and now I've finally accepted an interview but I am nervous.
Anyone have experience with the secondary campus on the Osan base in South Korea? Any general tips for DODEA interviews?
Thanks in Advance!

I remember that 10 days after my interview for a job in Germany, I called DoDEA to learn that the position was filled and I was so sad. Then at 14 days, I got the email! The position was filled...but by me! and the DoDEA staffer didn't tell me when I called and gave my name.

For my first job in Japan, I interviewed in July but I didn't get the FedEx packet that offered the job for a month. (Now it's all by email).

I only know it first hand by passing through. We stayed one night on base while traveling in the area (Vincenza, Verona, wineries). It seemed a nice base from my limited view and the area certainly has a lot of appeal for traveling and scenery. I know people who used to be stationed there and loved it.

So, they asked if you are you available immediately?
Things have gotten strange since they contracted out the a lot of processes.
