Today Olivet hosted the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). Over 20 international schools were represented. Have you ever thought about teaching overseas? On Friday, Mr. David Gentry shared pictures of Bangkok, Thailand. The pictures were amazing. Teachers contract for two years because the first year they are getting used to the cultural differences, and the second year they are more comfortable. Many teachers stay for five or six years. Interestingly, the school in Honduras is in need of a 3rd and 4th grade teacher right now as well as a full-time substitute teacher. What a unique opportunity this could be!
Our education students spoke with these representatives to find out about current and future openings. If you're thinking about teaching, God may direct you to an international school. As you plan to become a teacher, keep in mind that there are many different types of schools or educational settings - public and private schools in the United States, charter schools, homeschooling, tutoring, and international Christian schools are some of the options. As you prepare to become an educator, be open to where God may lead you.
