From what I can tell reading the forums, Search doesn't do much for individuals except hold the job fair. As I am part of a teaching couple, we would be looking at paying $400 so we can go to a fair that [b]they[/b] choose for us. This concerns me as, again from what I have read in the forum, the Boston job fair is the one worth going to. We really want to teach overseas but it bothers me to spend $ for something that I have no say in and no really service.
What is the feasibility of us finding a position going to either the Queens or Iowa job fair and/or purchasing a subscription to TIE online and applying directly to the schools we want?
We both have our Master's, 12 years of teaching experience, my husband has IB training and experience and I would love to teach in the MYP program but do not have my IB training.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Question About Medical Insurance and Condition
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has had an issue getting a job overseas with a medical condition? The condition is completely controlled through medication and is not life-threatening. (seizures/epilepsy).
I would hate for us to put in a lot of money and time to find a position only to discover that we can's get a job and/or medical coverage.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response. I know that they say they are not religious schools but when I looked at some of the school websites and their site combined with a couple comments I read on the forum it sounded like they may not be teaching religion but that religion definitely was part of the school culture.

QSI Schools
I am trying to understand the relationship between QSI schools and the US State Department. I thought QSI schools had a religious affiliation. Am I incorrect in my understanding?
