Why Hire Us? (A Quick Overview)

Welcome to our teaching jobs site. We use this site to market ourselves and to make it easier for people like you to quickly see whether we are suitable for any available teaching jobs. We know you see a lot of applicants, so we want to make this easy for you. Here are some key facts about us:

We are both experienced, enthusiastic teachers. Here are a few points that we feel set us apart from the crowd:

• We both have over 6 years of teaching experience.
• We have both worked in a range of schools, from challenging inner-city London schools to elite international schools. We always work hard to find ways to make a real difference.
• We are well-trained in our teaching specialisms. We both have Bachelor of Education degrees and IB experience. We also have both earned UK Qualified Teacher’s Status –which is a fairly rigorous process. (We have evidenced all 33 of the UK Professional Standards for Teachers.)
• We have worked in 7 countries and we have travelled to over 60 (click here to see where) and this has greatly enhanced our cultural sensitivities and adaptability.
• We both have a consistent track-record of quickly being asked to take on additional management responsibilities when we join a new school. We think this shows how well we perform as teachers.
• We have no dependants and we are open to living anywhere!
• We feel we have a lot to contribute to an education community. We are committed to improving as educators. We have taken part in a lot of excellent training over the years (as you can see on our Qualifications and Certifications page).
• We can manage (or contribute considerably) to any school’s E-Learning and Enterprise Skills initiatives.
• Most importantly, we are very successful in the classroom. We recently completed 5 years teaching in the UK. During this time we both scored consistent “Good” or “Outstanding” lessons, when observed internally. This record was maintained when we were observed by Ofsted and Her Majesty’s Inspectorate (Click here to see what that means).

On our Resumes and References page you can read some of the feedback we’ve had about our practice as educators. (We have great references!)

Here is a quick list of what else is available on the site:

• An explanation of our projects we’ve undertaken to contribute outside the classroom.
• On our Virtual Interview Page, you can hear us answer some common interview questions.
• You can read our resumes (CV’s).
• And of course, you can contact us to continue the discussion.
