Work / New Job at Warsaw International School as an English teacher - Advice? What should I expect? [26]
Currently, on top of my Bach. in Education, my additional qualifications include ELL ( Teaching English Language Learners ) . That should be ok I hope.
Thanks! Good luck in your new job.
Hi Pernumba,
Atch's answer has summarized everything a school teacher should know There is a lots of planning and more planning. Also, it is worth adding that with a good paying check, comes a lots of responsibility and expectation ( which I assume a teacher at the WIS would receive).
Teaching at an international school is a very different gig than teaching adults - now, you will represent the teaching community not only yourself.
Expect the first year to be stressful, but if you are young, love your job and are surrounded by supportive staff, you will be fine. The last advice, be careful what comes out of your mouth! Kids tell on teachers,especially when the parents pay big bucks for the program.
