Thanks! I figured I would be, it makes sense. Do schools look at you differently as a local hire? Positively or negatively?

Corporate spouse?

I am currently an elementary school teacher in the US. My husband is not a teacher, but he may have an opportunity to work abroad through his company, likely Singapore, but not necessarily. Our family would have all of our travel arrangements and visas through his job. If I wanted to teach in our new country, would I be considered a "local hire"?

Also, in the meantime, I'm thinking of adding a reading or special education license to my current elementary license, is either one more in demand in the international school market?

Thanks!
