Re: What are my chances?
Thanks so much for the detailed feedback-lot's to think about there. I do have experience teaching PYP so I'll work on making sure that is prominent on my resume & in my application materials. I have no problem saying I'm single on the application but do I explain his circumstances in an interview if possible? I am also covered under his insurance and it is Federal Gov't insurance, but it's a good idea to research the details. Again, thanks for all the great feedback (although I'm a little worried about all the kiddos getting reading support from the librarian!)

What are my chances?
I'm an experienced teacher who is beginning the process of looking for a job overseas. I've registered with Search Associates but thought I'd ask what this forum thinks about my chances of getting an offer, plus would love any advice you have to improve my chances. Here's what I think is important to know about me:
1. I'm 56 healthy years old
2. My husband would come with me, he will be a retired us gov't employee with his own pension & health insurance
3. We will have no children with us
4. I have 6 years of primary teaching experience and 6 years experience as a reading specialist and literacy coordinator (that is my current job. I'd love a job as a reading specialist, but would also consider K-3 elementary teaching
5. I work in a public school division that is IB K-12 so I have some IB (PYP) training
6. We are looking mostly at Europe and South America, but are also open to Asia & Africa
7. I have never taught internationally
I am registered for the Search Associates Cambridge job fair but really have no idea how marketable I am. Any thoughts you have would be greatly appreciated-thanks!
