Hang in there kathleen.... I know how you feel though because I went through this three summers in a row.

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

i wish i had something!

Wheni i was job hunting I got a lot of good prospects from here: http://www.dowling.edu/mydowling/stu.php

Under Announcements, there is a link that says current education job openings. They update it every week and it seems to always have a lot of jobs listed...

good luck!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

wow you soundexactly like fh and I!! We are both going for our masters in literacy, experienced and still waititng for somethign to pop up!

Best of luck to you!!! They say the last week in august is supposed to be golden week for the teachers so hopefully something will pop up then for all of us!!!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

oh kathleen, i know how you feel! that used to be me every august.

i wish i knew of something. if nothing opens up, become a permanent sub...that's how i got my first job and my new district hires their permanent subs over regular subs or TAs.

best of luck and i will keep my ears open!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

I'm so sorry you're going through this.
My sister just moved to Florida because after six years of looking, she still coulsn't find a job in elementary ed.

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

Hey Kathleen.. I'll join your party, as I too have had zero prospects for a job either. I am Secondary Science with a year experience, and for whatever reason I have had no luck.

I'm feeling beyond anxious, and worried about this school year. I've been having horrible nightmares for the last month... I didn't have them this bad about the wedding! FH and I are actually looking at relocating now... it makes me very sad.

Hang in there.. I know it's easier said than done. I wish us both lots of luck. Where is my luck of the irish when I need it?!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

I wish I knew of openings. I work in a school that is all special ed. I will cross my fingers for you though!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

call the NYCDOE or go online and get the addresses for the schools in decent neighborhoods and mail them resumes directly. thats what i did out of desperation three years ago and i got a job in a great school teaching 3rd grade the DAY BEFORE school started! it was stressful but worth it. now im working on getting out to LI for more money!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

I will keep my fingers crossed for you Kathleen

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

Sent you FM

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

thanks everyone!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

Good luck - looking for a teacing job was hell, and although I'm in the field I love, and now work with a whole bunch of school districts, I never did find that teaching job - now I'm glad though - you'll find the perfect job!

Re: NWR...Teaching JOBS...Elem ED

Good Luck! I am in the same boat, only worse.. I have no experience. This will be my first year teaching!
