There must be a surplus, at least of qualified teachers, if not quality ones. Otherwise how do we find enough people with a master's degree willing to take 45K a year to teach 25-30 rambunctious kids all day long? It baffles me that we still manage to find people willing to enter the career field, frankly.
- zdragnar 5y agoI imagine ot varies by region, but there are definitely more people looking for teaching jobs than there are jobs available where I live (my sister in law is a teacher and getting a new job is a very long process indeed).
- HarryHirsch 5y agoRural school districts have begun importing teachers from the Philippines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSmtbSYE8pg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSmtbSYE8pg Over there you can find educated people who are willing to work in Seely, MT for 30 kUSD/year. On a J-1 visa, with no possibility to settle permanently in the US. Good luck to all of us.
