Many international teachers want to work in the USA, and doing so can be both rewarding and a great adventure. However, it can also be a great challenge with all the different programs, types of school, jurisdictions, and expectations. The greatest challenges of all can be related to "employment authorization" or the visa. While I am not an immigration
attorney, I have employed dozens of international interns and teachers, both
locally and internationally hired. As a "Green Card" older myself, I have
jumped through many of the hoops of living and working in the US.Think of me as your coach, mentor and online critical friend. I can help with many of your teaching and administrative concerns, especially English Language and Literature, language immersion/dual language, skills-based and standards-based programs, from my experiences and knowledge gained as a PK - 6 and PK - 12 school leader, especially in start-up, re-launch/ re-branding, strategic planning, international school teaching and leading an international school in the USA.
