Therefore, if you are a teacher and meet the requirements above, please send your CV, to: juno@paradise.net.nz In the subject line of your email, put the following: "Teacher - Your Name + Location" Example: [Teacher - Mary - Bristol, England] It is important that you enter a correct Subject line, as we receive many emails from various sources. If you are a teacher, but not Montessori, and would like to teach in the state school system, we can assist you in finding a teaching position in New Zealand, plus immigration information. There will be a small fee for this service, from $15 USD, payable by VISA or Mastercard. This service will include a telephone discussion (unless you choose not to do so). Please send us an email, as per the above instructions.
A Special Note for Montessori Teachers in non-English Speaking Countries, especially Asia: In addition to the points above, it is highly advisable for you to send proof of your spoken English, with your job application (or with your CV sent to our job placement service). You must understand that it is generally unlikely that your application will be seriously considered unless you have previously worked in an English speaking country, or if you submit an audio or video tape showing your English proficiency. Another factor to consider is your accent. Obviously, head teachers and principals must know that their pupils will be able to clearly understand your spoken words. I strongly suggest that you telephone the school where you seek employment, and also consider including an audio or a video tape, or testimonials from an English speaking teacher who can confirm your English skills.
