advice
Hi there! My question is more so for people who hire teachers, but any advice is appreciated! This is my second year teaching full-time. Before this, I worked in a tutoring center and I taught ESL part-time. But, I've had two years of experience as a classroom teacher. Both of these, however, have been at different schools.
I left the first school because I was promised a raise and it was not granted to me. Normally, I don't make decisions based off of finances only, but my salary was less than $30,000 and I live in a city where the cost of living is relatively high. I am now at a school that I like everything is great. I really enjoy my job. But, I want to leave the city because it is much much too expensive for me. At my previous jobs, the tutoring center and ESL job, I was there for 2 years at each. But, I was only one year at each of these schools full time.
I'm wondering if this would be an issue if I move. Would my employment history not look good because I was only at these schools for one year? On the other hand, however, moving is a pretty understandable reason for not being able to stay in your previous place of employment. Also, I would have glowing reviews from that leadership.
Any help and wisdom from experience is appreciated!
Jumping from job to job can say alot about the person whose resume is being looked at. In your case being young and these jobs in the past were right out of college; most Human Resource Managers will over look it. Also being a teacher whose job is dependant on budgets you would be last in first out in any job shrinkage from budget cuts.
Question if you like the school and the job you have now whby do you have to change jobs. You can move out of the city and into the suburbs and commute. My niece is doing just that having taken a teaching job in one county but has moved further away in to another county for the lower cost of living.
(Rating: 5) thank you! that would actually be a great idea, except that I live in Miami, so that's ot really an option. Even the most suburb areas are half a million dollars because of the location. I'm planning on moving to the Carolina's next school year.
