I am a certified teacher for grades 1-6. I have been here for 8 months and is very eager to go back to work as a teacher. However, the only job offers I ever recieve are for part time teaching positions. I am really searching for a full time teaching position. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can obtain a full time position. I 've been around to all of the schools and talked to principals and handed out my resume. Thanks!

Taiwan may be a typhoon magnet, but Okinawa appears to be a teacher magnet.

There's a couple of members here that have experience in this area. Until they chime in with some good advice here's my pathetic attempt at help. :)
