The job board on tealit.com is getting few postings these days.
I arrived in Taipei last week and anticipated many openings here.
Can you recommend an alternative to tealit’s job board?
I’m okay submitting my information to recruiting agencies as well.
Go onto Facebook and type in “Need a Sub Teacher or Want a Sub Teacher in Taiwan” you can find lots of sub work to keep you going, also they have a few permanent positions going.
I may do this, so thanks for the mention.
But I do have money to keep afloat for some time. The main priority is securing a work permit before my 60-day visitor visa expires. What has me concerned is that I had anticipated a large number of openings in mid August. But there are just a few postings each day to the tealit board.
Previously, I applied for jobs in Korea whilst in North America. Eventually, I accepted a position and taught in Korea. During that course of finding work I scanned over scores of openings each day posted to Dave’s ESL job board. Finding work there was very easy even from overseas, and several public schools offered to hire me. I could have found work in a private academy with even less effort. And if I had been in Korea already, finding a good position would have been nearly effortless. Then, I had only adult tutoring experience and an online TEFL certificate.
I understand that in the greater Seoul area there is much more demand for native English teachers, but when I visit the tealit board, it suggests there’s a dramatic difference. But I’ve seen plenty of English academies in Taipei. So I’m slow to believe this.
