Opportunities to teach in North America may be scarcer than they were, but once you take the USA, Canada, The Caribbean and Bermuda into account, they do still exist. Apart from established exchange schemes, those looking for teaching posts are likely to either be wanting to teach in one of the international schools or because their partner either lives or works there.
One of the points made repeatedly on the TES Teaching Overseas forum is that getting a job in the US is tricky to do on your own. It’s much easier to work through a teaching programme such as VIF, Teach For America, Teachers Council or the British Council’s Fulbright teacher exchange scheme.
Another alternative is to apply to the British school groups such as World Class Learning Schools. You’ll find these groups advertise regularly in the TES.
Are you qualified to teach in state schools in North America?
Schooling is a State and provincial activity across mainland North America, and rules about the recognition of overseas qualifications vary between individual States.
Most State government web sites will have details on what is required for registration. The US Department of Education has links to all the State Education Agencies on its website and the University of Kentucky has compiled a handy guide to the certification requirements of 50 States.
To get certification for your State you will need transcripts of your degree program and all your paperwork to submit to the State teaching council. The teaching council will assess your qualifications and advise you on any further exams you need to take to secure your certification.
You may have to complete various Praxis exams; the Praxis Series tests are part of the teaching certification process required by many states and for professional licensing organisations. You can find more details on the kinds of questions asked in these tests on the Praxis website.
