USA K-12 Opportunities
In an effort to facilitate the movement from one state to another, the UK College of Education will attempt to link to K-12 job opportunities for the 50 states. We have discovered that some states do not centralize job announcements. In those instances, we have referred to the list of school districts within the state. These links are provided as a service to help narrow your search. Please do not contact the UK College of Education with questions about the job opportunities in the 50 states.
Please look at the requirements for the particular state. Please remember each state has unique requirements for teacher certification. Good luck in your search!
Teachers who want to move can learn about certification reciprocity through the National Association of State Directors Teacher Education and Certification.
Overseas Teaching Opportunities
Overseas teaching positions may be found at Educators Overseas, Search Associates, The International Educator, Overseas Placement for Educators, the ITS Tutorial School, the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) and through the US State Department.
ESL Opportunities
Job opportunities for English as a Second Language instructors can be found at English Maze, ESLemployment, English First, JobShop, TEFL Store, and ESL Jobs World.
