There are education jobs in fields like publishing, online, software, educational products, education activism, policy, politics, schoolboards, etc.

 

Based on my research, the people who make the most money in education are college administrators.  They deal with large sums of money taken in from guaranteed government student loans, international student fees, the high cost of textbooks, college sports tickets, etc. and have the authority to funnel it off for themselves.  That’s where the money is in education, all those quiet colleges you see everywhere taking in billions in some cases, a lot of it from the government and nobody bats an eye to see how much scam is involved in this business of higher education.

 

This book gives contact information for education organizations, education institutions and grade schools in most countries.

 

It’s for prospective teachers who want to teach either in their home country or in a foreign country and for parents and students going to grade school or college anywhere in the world.

 

It’s about how to get educated then find a job either as a teacher or professor at grade schools in Canada, the United States and the world. 

 

I start off providing information about how to get educated as a teacher, find a job and lists of most American and Canadian schoolboards, public schools and private schools.

 

Your résumé and cover letter should convey your skills, experiences and interests to the school.

 

They're looking for someone who can not only teach but might be able to take on an extra-curricular activity like coaching the basketball team or managing the computer club.

 

Depending on the subject, you might want to create a portfolio or online portfolio of examples of your work (artwork, written articles, etc.).  You can easily do this by creating a professional website showcasing your identity and skills.  Put it on your resume and clearly state that you have

an online portfolio there.

 

You can create a portfolio on free websites like facebook, wordpress and blogspot.com

 

Select references and obtain letters of recommendation from people like student teaching supervisors, cooperating teachers, principals,

professors and advisors.

 

Do not wait for the school district to ask you for a reference.  Provide a reference list along with your résumé.

 

Research potential school districts in order to learn about their hiring procedures.  They might list job openings on their website and have an online application form.

 

Go to teacher career fairs.

 

Practice your interviewing skills before you begin interviewing for career positions.

 

Some typical interview questions for teacher candidates are as follows:

 

Why do you want to become a teacher?

 

What are your greatest strengths as a teacher?

 

Tell me about yourself.

 

What is your greatest strength/ weakness as a teacher?

 

What is your philosophy of classroom discipline?

 

What kind of classroom management plan do you favor?  How would you implement it in your

classroom?

 

What strategies have you found effective in the classroom?

 

Describe steps that you would take to handle a disruptive student in your classroom.

 

What would I see if I visited your classroom?

 

Why do you want to teach at this school/district?

 

Do you have any special skills or talents that will contribute to your classroom success?

 

What about your hobbies or leisure-time activities?

 

Do you have any questions?

 

If you’re interested in teaching English or any other language, I created separate books for that.

 

I tell you about the job field to teach at colleges, often called higher education or professor and lecturer jobs which is universal between Canada and United States.  If you got the right degrees, you can easily get a job in the other country that you’re not a citizen of because you’re considered a specialist or at least that’s how it used to be.  Nowadays there are so many people with doctorates in not just the Social Sciences but in other fields that it may be that you’re not considered a specialist anymore therefore the immigration authorities will not just let you in like they used to.   

 

For example, if you have a Phd in psychology, it’s like so what.  Any hack can teach that stuff.  The immigration people might tell the college to find a national to teach the stuff.  It’s not like you’re a unique, advanced specialist.

 

On the flip side, there are lots of online jobs you can do from home.

 

This book you gives you a lot of contact information for the Canadian and American education industry, schools and colleges which you can use to find a job.

 

It’s not just about teaching jobs.  Every college is a mini-city with jobs all the way from housekeeping to keeping the in-house electric power plant going.

 

If you want an academic career, you have to get a doctorate in some field then apply for teaching jobs at universities, colleges and community colleges.

 

You can get teaching jobs at most community colleges with just a Master’s degree.

 

In the old days, you could get a teaching job at a university and stay there for life getting what they call tenure which is job security that you get if you teach for a certain number of years, publish a number of articles in academic journals, invent something as part of academic research or something like that.  A tenure committee decides if an individual is worthy to get job security as a bonafide intellectual.  Many people get rejected or there is a competition for a tenured position.

 

Nowadays all bets are off because a lot of education by colleges is going online plus the fact that college  administrators are consciously hiring part-timers, paying them to teach course-by-course rather than offering a fulltime job job with benefits.

 

There’s the research and writing thing beyond teaching.  A lot of research, especially in the Social Sciences, is useless.  A lot of academic articles in the many journals don’t really add anything to real knowledge.  It’s just a business of creating journals.  How far are you willing to go in any field that is not hard science until you realize that it’s all a meaningless game?

 

You have to able to write and teach.  If you’re in a big research field, you have to think up interesting and useful experiments to do.

 

There’s a lot of competition firstly for jobs then among peers for promotions, research money and respect within the pecking order of your college and the people in the field in general.

 

If you’re serious about it, decide on exactly what you’re really interested in then focus on becoming the world’s best expert in it.

 

Find a mentor or several in your field to learn from.

 

Try to get published while you’re still a student by creating original essays then simply submit them to relevant journals.  The address is on every journal.  If you get published just once, that’s a big advantage to get a teaching job at a college.

 

Learn the procedure to write formal papers and grant proposals for research funding.

 

You might get bored of your field and move into some other subspecialty in your field.

 

There is a lot of hate, jealousy and competition in academia because all these eggheads think they’re hot stuff so they don’t want anyone to do better than them.

 

Create a good resume with examples of your written work.

 

You could put your written work on a website for employers to see.

 

Get some academic references.

 

It’s a game of promotions.

 

You’re spozed to teach to help students not to try to be a bigshot in your field.  Try to be a great teacher.

 

Constantly write articles to try to get published.

 

Try to find bookings to speak at academic conferences.

 

Create yourself as a public speaker.  Go to a seminar company and put your name in to speak for hire in your field.

 

If you work with anyone on a big study, book or something, resolve issues of how you share the ownership of it.

 

There is a lot of rejection in academic writing.  Journals get swamped with articles by ambitious people.

 

In the end, most college professors don’t add anything new to the progress of humanity even though many think they do.  They’re just cogs in the business of the college. They can’t write freely.  Most of the stuff in the Social Sciences is a bunch of meaningless garbage that nobody cares about except for the brainwashed people in the field pretending to be smart.  Naive college kids buy it.  I think that vast majority of college professors in the humanities are bullshitters hooked on ego rather than soul.  I think most of the material itself is useless because all that matters is that an individual knows their true nature and follows it.  Everything else is meaningless junk from the world as far as contemplating life goes. 

 

It’s a big game of phony knowledge in everything except for the hard sciences.

 

I’ve seen so many people waste so much time doing the most meaningless studies that anyone with common sense already knew the answers to like a woman who was studying whether a garbage dump had negative effects on the people who lived in the area.
