So what is the latest update ?
Is everyone exhausted by now ?
Good Luck !!

So, what is the difference in the quality of life in these 3 places ?

I got an automated reply too. Since then they have filled many positions.
My guess is that they recruit mainly at the job fairs.

Ummm...I meant....does anyone have anything to say (a fair diary) regarding the recent UNI Fair ???

How was it ?
Was it easy to find a teaching job ?

Has anyone had any luck with their on-line application system ?
They state that one has to apply on-line in order to be considered for a position.
Just wondering if
anyone has heard back from them....

I really do not see the big deal.......

Does anyone know anything recent about this school ?

Does anyone know if Jalan is a town or city ?
Are there grocery stores and pharmacies there ?
It is really difficult to find any information about this place besides some Google photos.

Thanks for the feedback to both of you !!

Does anyone know what would be considered the top 5 schools in Istanbul ?

Also, has anyone currently lived there ?
I heard that there is lots of pollution, lots of traffic, and it is over-crowded?
True or false ?

On the other hand, I have read that Istanbul is quite an interesting city as it is a blend of Western and Eastern cultures due to its location.

Looking forward to your feedback....

Stop being a drama queen PsyGuy !!!

"I'm confused now, your original post inferred that this "friend" didnt have any experience in teaching abroad or the region?

My biger and more alarming question is, what arent you telling us? "

1) I NEVER said this in my original post.


"It has to be pretty bad, there are felons and sexual predators working in education in the ME... "

2) NO, this person is NEITHER of these .....

Please don't start adding gossipy comments PsyGuy.
I am looking for ways to assist my friend whom I know very well.

Anyone else with constructive advice ?

Here's the deal:

He has over 15 years of teaching experience in elementary education.
Also has reading specialist and special education cert. ...He has mainly taught in his home country (except for recent time with Teachaway /ADEC.)
He tried Footprints but wasn't offered an interview as it was for
teaching TEFL to high school/foundation English program in the UAE
and he needs a TEFL cert for that.
He did teach for ADEC and came back recently to his home country
and then recently decided to work with ADEC again but had a recent interview via Teachaway and surprisingly did not get offered a position despite having worked for them before.
Any more thoughts ? Feedback ?

This teacher friend will probably not consider China as they are
only considering the Gulf.....
