Hola senior (or maybe you are a seniorita),
Yon, buddy, I take you have not read the teaching thread. Have you not looked at the JET programmes website? The Netherlands, aka land of moo cows, is a participant country in the JET programme. This is your best chance at beating the whole non-native speaker dealy. Why? Because even if you are a total d'bag, JET will take you and love you like you were the greatest English teacher that never was. Please go to The JET Programme--Official Homepage of (wankdom) and register to become a wanktard next year in like, I think, August. The selection process is long and stupid, so have fun with that. Anyways, let me lay it down for all non-native teachers. No, you do not have to be a native speaker of English to work as an English teacher (especially as an ALT). If you have not read the teaching thread in the Living in Japan section please check it out. Now for a few tips and possible problems for non-native teachers: 1. In your case, you will want more than the standard bachelors degree or equivalent to qualify. I am talking about certification in TESL and even better, actual experience. In the city I work in, there was a Dutch teacher working in the elementary schools. The thing is though, he had at least two years experience teaching English in Holland and happened to be very good with kids. He may have even had a teaching degree. 2. Problems. To be honest, you may be employable and able to teach, but the real decision of who qualifies and who doesn't lies with immigration. Immigration may or may not grant you a visa even if you get the job. Companies prefer native speakers for the simple fact that the guy (or gal) at immigration looks at your passport and thinks, "Hmm, Netherlands... Nope, never heard of it. Visa denied, next." Seriously though, who knows what these immigration officers do. I go for a stamp, a renewal, and it takes a month to process it. Then they approve and send me a little postcard, I show up and have to wait like thirty minutes for what? So the glue can dry? You thought about this decision for a month already, give me my sticker so I can go home! Well good luck and if you get the job welcome to clown school. |
