When a job notice for an international school (American Curriculum) asks for a resume - are they looking for a standard resume (highlighting jobs in reverse chronological order) or since it is an international school do I need a CV? I'm assuming I take it at face value and they mean resume when they say resume, but I'm new at this. Just wanted to make sure I don't make a silly mistake. Any advice you can offer for resume format and cover letter would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks. This is the part I'm worried about. I would expect to pay for their travel and even for a larger living space. We would be fine with a 2 bedroom since the youngest will only be there for short visits - do teachers with a trailing spouse usually get a one bedroom?

My main concern is if our oldest wants to be with us for the entire school year - how difficult will that be? Most visitor/tourist visas are only for a few months, correct?

We have two sons who will both be out of high school - our youngest graduates in May. Our oldest would really like to move with us and be part of the whole experience. The youngest want to go straight onto college and will come visit over Christmas and summer break. I know it could be tricky to find a school willing to hire me with a trailing spouse and kids - but are there any country restrictions if my kids are 18 or over? Thanks.

Do you have to pay to be in the member forum?

Thank you for the help!

I have a friend who taught with QSI and she has been telling me about their schools. I've been researching their schools and they have a well organized website that makes it easy to check out all of their schools. They also appear to have a fairly stream-lined application process - one application for any of their schools. I've been looking for similar international school setups, but haven't had much luck. I see plenty of international schools out there - but is there anything else like QSI where there are several schools under one umbrella organization?

Thanks. I appreciate any help you can offer.
