Talk:Teaching abroad
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Good topic, bad presentation
This article is US-centric, written like an advertisement for teachers, does not cite sources and is not neutral with respect to the topic. It does not have a lead. I suspect that the topic could make a good encyclopedic article, but I don't think that I would start from this work. --Bejnar 20:43, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Broaden the article
Teaching abroad encompasses five types of employment:
- International business jobs overseas, working for a company teaching their employees;
- Professional Teaching (with a certificate) Full-time open-ended professional employment at a school or university;
- Internships, which may be student teaching or combined as fellowships with teaching duties;
- Temporary (1 year or less) or low-Skill employment, most ESL teachers fit here as does, to some extent, the United States Peace Corps;
- Government jobs abroad, some United States Peace Corps jobs fall here, as do many USAID jobs;
- Foreign government jobs, working for a foreign government other than in a school or university;
- The article needs to cover the whole ground. --Bejnar 21:08, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
