Why is it almost impossible to find a teaching job in South Africa when there is a shortage of teachers? ?
I have a degree in Languages from the University of Stellenbosch and over 6 years teaching experience, but I can't find a teaching job in South Africa. I am currently doing my teaching diploma through UNISA and was accepted by SACE. Who can one contact to address this issue. Read this interesting Afrikaans article, here http://152.111.1.251/argief/berigte/dieburger/2008/11/08/SK/11/mdwOnderwys.html

One of the former members here (who is my friend) said he personally knows one Penny Vinjevold whom you can contact at 012 3125313/5314. He has her mobile fone. Let me know if you need that.
maximum schools won't hire all people who has no longer finished their degree. which potential, completely finished, no longer in straightforward terms engaged on it. And, what form of certification do you have? No college around here could hire any instructor who grow to be no longer thoroughly qualified in our state, or qualified to be qualified, consisting of winding up all their pupil coaching. and, the words "on line" college deliver up a pink flag for many people who're doing hiring. some on line faculties are scams, or perhaps those that are thoroughly valid are suspected of producing pupils who have not extremely achieved the paintings they declare. So, lots of people who do hiring, could prefer, in the event that they had a call, to hire somebody who had finished their degree, or atl least extremely some path, at a school that grow to be no longer "on line" no longer all college districts are wanting instructors. and not all college districts are wanting Spanish instructors. there are various hispanics in the U. S. who can coach Spanish so I dont think of that distinctive concern is in short grant.... in case you have been in a different concern area, say physics or math, which would be different.
Very easy they need A lot of teachers in the black suburbs but nobody want to go there and teach because of the attitude and manner of black people all want to go teach in the white suburbs cause of there safety
Dunno where you are at present, friend, but I can tell you one thing - contact the Education Dept in SA and ask them to forward the application form to you - We'll discuss this very query of you again in 5 years time - maybe you would have received the appl form by then. Good luck!!!!! (they are a crazy bunch!)
