QUI

Thanks for the replies. Sorry for any confusion.

@ heyteach My wife in not a teacher and I'm just wondering if they would hire me knowing that we are not a teaching couple. I'm not expecting her to work at all, at least for the first year or so as we have a three year old child.

I'm just trying to clarify what I read on a post here about QSI only hiring teaching couples.

Does QSI hire married couples when one is a non-teaching spouse?

Thanks for the advice. @tdaily26, I use TIE and have everything set up now. Psyguy, I've considered getting a secondary math cert in the near future.

Teaching in Asia Advice

Hello,
I would like some objective opinions on my prospects for landing a teaching position in Asia for the 13-14 school year.

My background includes 18 years teaching experience in USA, mostly in middle school science and mathematics with 2 years teaching AP Calculus.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and a Master of Education in Science education. I am certified in both Mathematics grades 7-9 and upper level Science, but have never taught physics or chemistry.

I have a non-teaching trailing spouse and 2 elementary grade children. My plan is to apply to Search and to the schools directly. I realize my family situation is a bit of a challenge but I’m willing to go the extra mile as we have been thinking of doing this for a few years.

Any info appreciated.
