No doubt Vanguard is the way to go. You can construct a great portfolio with them through 3 ETFs/Mutual Funds...VTI (Whole US Market), VXUS (Whole non-US market), and VWITX (tax exempt bond fund). Once you figure out your asset allocation of stocks to bonds...just dump money into those funds and rebalance every so often. Super tax efficient and super diversified. Finally, I completely agree that having at least a year in cash as an emergency funds is a great goal. Up to 10,000 per year can be purchased in I bonds and the rest can be kept in cash. Cheers.

Lincoln has a very good reputation and a good director. Lagos seems like tougher day to day living but a great package.

IMHO if you get an offer at AES New Delhi or AS Bombay you should take it. Either school is top notch and they make living there as easy as they can, even though it is India.

My guess is that the MEd would be more impressive. Most schools will have separate salary columns for BA, BA+60, MA, MA+15, etc...

Hi guys...I saw some dated reviews of this school but wanted to see if anyone on the forum has more current info? My impression is that the kids are SOLID, but I am wondering about admin, responsibilities outside of class, and overall package. Anyone with knowledge please share! Thanks!

Congrats teachman! Where are you and the wife heading?

PsyGuy thanks for your reply. Copenhagen is really intriguing to me, and that's awesome if the school is so well thought of. But, if there isn't much savings potential, then that's tough for me to look past. Anyone else have thoughts?

Hi everyone. I am trying to gather information about CIS. What is the teaching environment like? What is living in Copenhagen like (I am a single male in my early 30s)? Is there savings potential at all? I wasn't able to find much info in the reviews and blogs so I hope some of you may be able to help out. Cheers!
