Thank you. I looked and found two really interesting schools in Japan and applied to them. We shall see!!!

Thank you so much!! I already started looking on these search engines. A lot of the postings seem to be for middle school but I applied to a few anyway seeing that they did have PYP and Primary schools. Who knows... I guess it couldn't hurt.

I looked at the Engelska School... unfortunately, they start at 4th grade I believe. I'm only certified (and only really enjoy for that matter) up to second grade. I will look into the one in London though!! Thank you!!

I'm just going to be really specific here... Has any US citizen on here ever worked at as teacher in Sweden? I'm wondering if it's even a possibility. I'm really caught up on Sweden because I use to study there and would really like to finish learning the language and I still have friends in the country.
Also, I would be slightly curious about the UK as well... but I'm pretty sure that's impossible. Sweden may be too. eeekkk
Thanks

I think I'm literally just going to apply everywhere. I don't trust recruiters... I was just wondering where people think I would have a good chance with 2 years of International teaching experience and a masters degree?!

I'm certified to teach all the way up to second grade. Last year I was a special needs teacher in a 3rd grade classroom since Kuwait doesn't seem to care much about what my qualifications were.

I really enjoy Kindergarten though. I'm open for change and honestly my priorities are very low... I just want a school that isn't insanely corrupt or racist.

For life style, I would occasionally like to go out to a bar and have a beer. Wouldn't mind walking outside without people harassing or filming me. Very basic things....

I don't expect to save a ton of money like I'm doing in Kuwait. but I don't want to be eating ramen noodles everyday like a college student.

I don't mind working hard as long as it is for competent people.

I hope this helps. I just want recommendations on schools.. especially for US citizens.. I feel were are more limited compared to Canadians and people from the UK.

Hi,
I'm currently a kindergarten teacher working at an international school in Kuwait. This is my second year teaching in Kuwait and 3rd year of overall teaching full-time. I have a masters in early childhood and early childhood special education.... Certified in both subjects on a state level... I'm a US citizen...My question is... where should I apply??? Honestly, I want a warm inviting school.. in a country that is fun and I can have some sort of open social life in. I'm a bit over the middle east and so are my sinuses. Ideally, I would love to work in Europe but I know this may not be realistic.
ANY ADVICE?
