The International Schools Review Forum

Hey everyone :)

I´m wondering if anybody has any info on life in Switzerland and teaching opportunitities. Yes, yes...I know it´s expensive. Any other info?

I have been teaching French in Canada for the past 3 years (about to start 4th year), and have taught languages in Spain for 2 years. When I lived and worked in Spain, I fell in love with the European way of life. I have German nationality, was born and raised there, and kind of want to go back to Europe...at least for a year or two, to experience what it would be like working in an international school.

I´m wondering if I would be a good candidate. I speak 4 languages (German, French, Spanish and English).

I guess what is pulling me to Switzerland, aside from the beautiful landscape, is that this country has 4 official languages. I find this to be incredibly interesting. Being multilingual myself, I feel like I am being called to this country.

Anyway, any information on living and teaching in Switzerland would be appreciated...again, I know getting a job in Europe is difficult, but let me dream a little, okay? Hehe...thanks everyone.

Thanks for the reply Psyguy, it's very much appreciated. I'm also open to other countries, if I am given the chance! Spain and Germany would also be countries I'd love to work in...
