IndyGuy...Our landlord near Osan provided a TV and all other appliances. Hopefully the installations will go smoother than ours...they installed a dishwasher but forgot to attach water:) Main thing is getting as comfortable as possible. Decide on apartment or house...they do have single family housing units and tons of apartments. Not sure how many...See More

Don't be afraid to be yourself, especially the goofy side. Kids respond go authenticity and vulnerability as well as confidence and authority. Do the socks. See which kids notice first. I have a fairy that sneaks out of her terrarium fairly regularly and gets in capers around the room. The kids love it. Maybe you can have fun with your environment ...See More

Actually, just got information that I will NOT have the option to apply for a pay advance. xD But the other two parts of my question I would like additional clarification on. Thank you!

Thanks in advance.

haha, how does the COLA factor into your pay?
haha
It's a tax-free addition to your pay. It varies wildly by location and time (depending on cost of living, currency exchange rates, etc.). Ours tripled up to $840 per pay period before dropping down to $500+.
It's listed as a percentage by location, but makes more sense when you use the calculator (if you haven't already):

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
haha
Yes, there are a certain number of school days you need be present and on duty for that year to count towards RAT. I forget the exact rule but it's something like 170/175 days as I recall.

Well, every base generally has at least one assessor, so at least some positions are open/filled every year. You'd have more opportunities if you included LI positions (or assessor/LI combinations).
Getting hired for any position is a long shot these days. It gets even longer if you try to target a certain country/location. But, complete/u...See More

By relation: I applied and was qualified for four positions on June 9th. I haven't heard a peep about the next step in the process. Should I ask if my application is online and visible? I know the...See More

DoDEA sites often go down for maintenance, etc. fairly often. Keep checking back.
Once your EAS is finalized, there really is not much in the way of communication from HR's end unless there is an issue with your application (and often not even then) unless you are referred for an open position, a principal looks at your application for an ...See More

No problem. Probably not a deal breaker for you, but keep in mind that Misawa does generally get a lot more snow than Chicago (like 4x's the annual average snowfall).

Hi. How/where do you get a list of hard to fill worldwide positions? I know that in Japan they sent out an internal list of vacancies for intradistict positions, which were move yourself positions.
haha
It depends. Are you currently a DoDEA overseas teacher in Japan? If yes, then it is possible, although many open positions are being filled internally with teachers agreeing to pay for their own move. You would still keep LQA if you already have that benefit. If not, you may qualified for it if they want/need someone badly enough.
If you a...See More
