My wife and I want to move to Japan, and I have a master’s in school counseling. She’s working on a licensure program to be a teacher. We both have TEFL certificates. We want to apply through Search Associates or Schrole and hopefully be there next school year. She was a substitute teacher for a year and is now working in a preschool as a cook and floater teacher. How realistic is our goal of getting there next year? Hiring season is beginning for international schools and she would probably finish her program by may at the latest so is anyone likely to offer her a job pending her getting her license before her job would actually start or will they just not consider her at all? I’m currently working as a GT counselor.
