I'm filing out job application forms for a teaching position and keep seeing this question pop up Have you ever resigned in lieu of being non-reelected or dismissed by a school district? This is a yes to for me. In January I was told by my new principal that he was not reelecting me for rehire next year. He believed that I was a good teacher. I was shocked by this because I changed grade leveles went from 2nd to 5th grade a month into the school year for him because he said thats what team players do. I had no problems with this guy until I decided to make a unit on gingerbread houses around christmas. I was one for three teachers doing this but the only one making it curriculum based. I fought for my right to do it which upset him and he desided to repremand me for being insubbordinate. Nothing happened to the other teachers. I told him I felt that he was harrassing me things were dropped and now I'm not being rehired. What kind of statement do I include to answer this question. HELP!

of 6, 7, and 8th grade students. He then assigned an essay about its importance for homework. Shouldn't teachers be teaching the curriculum and not indoctrinating? This Florida teacher is probably one of those complaining about "No Child Left Behind" and its adherence to a given curriculum.

As a group we have been set the task of teaching a younger year group (12-13yo vs our 15/16yo group) about Body Image. How can we address them, without being patronising? We have to make it clear that they are not adults yet, and so can't judge themselves in that way, but how do we avoid calling them children or kids? Youths sounds abrubt, and they aren't all teenagers yet.
Any suggestions?

I am interested in pursuing a teaching career in Italy so I can be closer to my family. Can I major in Italian Studies and then get my ESL certification certificate? Do you have to major in Education to become a teacher? Do you have to get your credentials then get ESL certified? Or is a ESL certificate enough?? I am hoping that someone with personal experience can help. Thanks in advanced.

My relative in Singapore found a tuition teacher to give english tuition to his daughter. This teacher holds the tuition at a HDB flat to 10-12 students at a time. At other periods, my relative also saw many other students going in and out. He is therefore worried that such home-based "tuition centre" is considered illegal, since it is apparently not licensed. Is there any way to check? What will happen to that teacher or the HDB owner if such activities are really illegal?
