Hard Times? Recession? Teach Abroad - Why Not?

E-mail

“There are still jobs out there... you just have to know where to look.”

Stop.  Read this carefully.  Footprints Recruiting is HIRING NOW.  We have literally hundreds of teaching jobs starting EVERY MONTH.  If you apply today, you could have a job in a week and you could be abroad teaching in a little over a month.

Stop.  Think about this.  ANY degree.  Free airfare.  Free housing.  Good salary.  It comes as no surprise to anyone that this global recession is affecting people dramatically.  Uni grads are having a tough time finding work and recently hired people are looking at being the first to lose their jobs.  This is not a fun market for job seekers.  So hold on, why not have an experience of a life time.  Teach English for a year or two overseas.  Earn great money, have your airfare and housing paid for, heck, you can even send money home to pay down debt or play the market and hopefully take full advantage of this current economic fiasco.

Olympics come to Vancouver and to Footprints

E-mail

Just hours before the opening ceremonies of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics, the official torch run wound its way through the streets of Vancouver before lighting the cauldron to start the games. At around 9am on February 12th, Footprints staff took a moment to go downstairs to see the torch pass right by our front door.  We cheered on as the flame going past displaying our national colours. Currently in the office we represent six different nations with staff from Canada, US, China, Korea and our current interns from Japan and Switzerland.

Teachers Seeking Classrooms

E-mail

 

Unfortunately, many schools districts in North America are closing schools and cutting programs.  There are many reasons for this including lowered enrollment, and increased costs.  Whatever the reason, this has left many recent graduates from university education departments without teaching jobs.  Additionally, there are more seasoned teachers who have suddenly found themselves with reduced classroom time or without a classroom altogether.  Most teachers went into this profession because of their passion for teaching and their joy of learning.  The inability to actively participate in their chosen field is often devastating with many teachers fleeing the profession for other careers. 

 

There is another choice.  Recently, there has been an increase in demand for certified teachers in ESL positions overseas.   Many of these positions are in public schools where there’s the opportunity to work with a team of other certified teachers, and to participate in many school activities.   With positions from various Ministries of Education in Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan just for starters, the choices are limitless. 

 

Eventually more positions will open up in your home country, but for now why not take the opportunity to learn from teachers in other countries, gain some ESL experience and travel beyond your borders?  Choose to continue teaching and share your passion with other educators and students from around the world.

Teacher Reviews

Holly Hutchens

Holly Hutchens “I'd like to start off by saying that my choice to teach abroad in Korea was one I know I will never regret! Footprints made it very easy to communicate with the school regarding details of where I'd be living and what I'd be teaching as well as taking care of my flight information. At the airport the morning we left, my boyfriend and I encountered overweight bags and extremely long lines at security, and we missed our flight by literally one minute. As we watched our plane pull from the gate, we just about lost our minds and any hope that we'd make the long journey we'd been planning for so long. We made one simple phone call to the travel agent, Claus, that Footprints set us up with. It was 6AM where he was on a Monday morning when we called in a panic. He said, "Stay by your phone," and we knew that he would fix this fiasco for us. Luckily, while Claus was searching for a solution, a woman from United Airlines was able to book us on another flight so that we would make our connection out of the U.S. to Seoul. We would like to thank Claus and Laina at Footprints for all their help in getting us to Korea! ”
