Hello everyone,
I am currently trying to find a teaching post at any international school in Hong Kong.
Really need your advice on how I can go about it.
I graduated from an Australian university majoring in International Business and currently is teaching music/drama lesson at a learning center.
I am fluent in English, Chinese(Mandarin, Cantonese) and Japanese but lack teaching experience at proper school.
I have been teaching English only privately or at a local learning center. My current teaching job, although is focus on music, is also using English to teach.
I am trying to get into the PGCE program and getting my TEFL certificate at the moment and I also try to apply for maybe TA or teaching job at international school.
Is there anything else that I could work on to have a better chance of getting a teaching post at any international school in Hong Kong??
Thanks for all your helps!

I think (or, at least, hope) that your English would need to be better than you displayed here in order to teach at a prestigious school.

Interesting how anyone would put up a post asking how to get a job teaching English while committing all those errors in the post. It's astonishing and dismaying how many English teachers in HK are English-challenged.

Teddy, you have no hope of getting a teaching job in an international school unless you are a qualified teacher. No reputable school would choose an unqualified teacher when there are so many qualified teachers to be found. If teaching is what you want to do, go back to school and get qualified.
