Bangkok

KIS International School, Bangkok. Only one review and appears positive. What do people know about the school and surrounding area. I am looking for stability in my next position and want any information about school life, growth and life outside of school,

Thanks

Southeast asia schools - frustrated

Have I done the wrong thing by not going to a job fair this year? My school term started at the beginning of Jan and I wasn't able to go and instead have applied directly to schools.

I am wanting a position in Asia and have applied for schools in Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and China. Most of these schools had deadlines at the end of Jan. Should I have heard anything by now?

I have 6 years teaching experience, 3 at IS (one only - private Japanese school with MYP/DP Program). I have had 3 years experience teaching DP Chem (SL and HL) as well as MYP Science and Math. I have also taught first year university chemistry whilst in my first teaching position in Australia, along with Biology.

I am single, female and have a degree in science (Biochem and Genetics) as well as a degree in education. I have presented at national science conferences and collaborated with two major Australian univerisities on education programs. I have experience with ESL and SN.

Should I be concerned? It is so frustrating waiting and not being sure of the future. I have applied to 16 schools (all at least tier one/two), is it a turnoff that I won't be at a job fair?
