Answer: Absolutely! We work closely with you to understand your preferences and requirements. We tailor our candidate search to match your institution's unique needs.
Answer: A bachelor's degree in education or a related field, along with a teaching license or certification, is typically required. However, having a Master's degree in your field can provide you with a distinct advantage. 
Answer: You must complete a state-approved teacher preparation program, pass required exams, and fulfill state-specific requirements.
Answer: Some states may require proof of English proficiency, often through exams like TOEFL or IELTS.
Answer: It's possible, but your foreign degree will likely need to be evaluated by a recognized credential evaluation agency for equivalence to U.S. standards.
Answer: Yes, you'll typically need a work visa, such as an H-1B, or J-1 visa for exchange teachers. The H-1B visa is typically for employment purposes and can lead to long-term residency in the U.S., while the J-1 visa is for exchange programs and often involves a requirement to return to one's home country upon program completion. The choice between the two depends on the specific goals and circumstances of the applicant.

H-1B Visa:
  • The H-1B visa is primarily for foreign workers with specialized skills and knowledge.
  • It is commonly used by employers to hire foreign professionals in fields such as technology, engineering, healthcare, and academia.
  • The H-1B visa allows the visa holder to work for a specific U.S. employer in a specific job for a specified period (typically up to six years).
  • It often leads to the opportunity for long-term employment or even permanent residency in the U.S.
  • The spouse and dependent children of the H-1B visa holder can generally obtain H-4 visas to live in the U.S.

J-1 Visa:
  • The J-1 visa, on the other hand, is designed for cultural exchange and educational programs.
  • It is commonly used for individuals participating in programs such as research, teaching, medical training, or cultural exchange.
  • J-1 visa holders are expected to return to their home countries upon completing their program.
  • The J-1 visa often has a "home-country physical presence requirement," which means the visa holder must return to their home country for at least two years before applying for certain other U.S. visas or permanent residency.
  • The J-2 visa is available for the spouses and dependent children of J-1 visa holders, but they are not permitted to work unless they obtain their own work authorization.
  • It often leads to the opportunity for long-term employment or even permanent residency in the U.S.
  • The spouse and dependent children of the H-1B visa holder can generally obtain H-4 visas to live in the U.S.
