In most cases you will be paid in the local currency. Before you sign a contract make sure you know the exchange rate between the currency in your country of origin and your potential host country. This is a great link to bookmark: Universal Currency Converter - www.xe.com

Some schools in Middle Eastern countries, particularly Kuwait and Saudi Arabia pay in U.S. Dollars. If this is the case it will be specified in your contract. International schools affiliated with the U.S. government or military also pay their teachers in U.S. funds.

Valerie and Griffin Stewart “We wanted to take a moment to thank you for your help in getting us to South Korea! The transition could not have been smoother and we have been so impressed with the entire process. The staff at Footprints has been amazing. They are always knowledgeable and professional, as well as friendly and personable. We really felt that all of our questions were answered. We have already begun recommending Footprints to our friends! Thanks again!”
