[Phys-l] Will ballistic pendulum trouble teacher? Was: Re: Salary and Jobs



while searching for a Paul job in Calif., I found the below article in the Chron. (May 25)

I understand there is a shortage of Physical science teachers here. I suggest Paul check the Calif. teacher credentialing site and AAPT job sites. The NCNAAPT list has advertised jobs recently.

bc, who had no trouble getting a demonstratorship in England in '66. I was know as the reverse brain * drain.
* An undeserved? compliment.


p.s. this is not the first post asking about US Physics employment.

I teach in Scotland and have been running my Physics department in a
middle management capacity for 2 years at secondary level(11-18).

I am looking for a change in direction and would like to know how
easy it would be to get an equivalent position within the US.
I do not claim to know much about the US education system which
is why i am posing this question.

At present i earn £40+K so would be looking for the exact british
equvalent converted into USD.

I would also consider international schools based in the US but
i have found little information on this.

Could anyone please advise?

Thanks in advance.

In general, it is not easy or quick to find legal employment in the US.
There are people who are willing to cross deserts under a 100 degree (F) Sun
on foot, and pay thousands for that privilege, in order to work illegally
as field hands, cooks and cleaners.
There are people who are in a rare job category, who can legally be employed.
There are people who file with a US Embassy for an immigrant visa and
wait many years for the fruition of their application.
There are people who marry American citizens who can enter with
relatively little commotion.

Are you married?
