S3, E63 - We have discussed this before, but now we have added a bright new cohost. Jacqueline of JPMint Consulting joins our ITP team with many years of overseas experiences, not only with a woman's perspective, but as a Canadian, a veteran international teacher, an administrator, and now a recruitment consultant for international teachers.
​
JP starts off by quizzing the boys on what makes a great candidate but doesn't hesitate to join in with Kent making fun of Greg. Check out her website at: https://www.jpmintconsulting.com/

JP has also pushed us into the old world of FaceBook with our new group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/itpexpat and Kent promises to join his cat on an ITP TikTok.
Enjoy the show.

The best written words to describe this dynamic duo are their website header: A Recruiting and Consulting Agency that Advances Diversity - The Diversity Collective, a POC-owned and operated organization, works to place exceptional leaders and educators in schools. As a facilitator between educators and partner schools committed to strengthening their leadership, we work to bridge the current diversity gap seen at schools around the world.

S2, E50 - Welcome to our 50th episode of the International Teacher Podcast. It is also our 2 year anniversary. We welcome back Jacqueline Mallais, the founder of JPMint Consulting, for her second guest appearance on our show. Jacqueline has established herself as a consultant extraordinaire for current and soon-to-be international teachers. Listen in as she celebrates her successes and future goals. At some point, JP orchestrates a TikTok challenge with Greg the single guy.


This is a must listen episode for any international teacher that is ready to move on to their next school, any current teachers thinking about going abroad to teach, and all pre-service teachers that aren't sure whether international teaching is meant for them.

You may have seen his name mentioned on the Pancake on a Stick Newsletter or even taught with him at some point in Poland, Vietnam, Netherlands, or Dubai. Scott is currently living with his family in Poland and consulting for international teachers. The first half of this episode we get to know Scott and hear about his experiences. The second half we discuss international recruiting. Scott has been on both sides of the International Teaching interview table, so this episode is packed with advice. Enjoy this powerful episode.

S2, E38 - Jacqueline P Mallais M.Ed., M.A., originally from Ottawa, joins us from beautiful Guadalajara, Mexico. Greg learns he needs a cover letter and Kent learns we aren't as special as we think we are. Jacqueline offers an excellent resource for those of us who aren't quite sure what is needed on a CV (resumé) or cover letter for International Teaching Recruitment. To quote Jacqueline: "I've applied for lots of jobs I haven't gotten interviews for, but there are very few jobs I've interviewed for that I haven't gotten."

S2, E36 - The three of us discuss how we, as seasoned teachers in an international school, help new staff navigate their first few weeks. Being the new teacher at an international school overseas is not easy. It's not necessarily the teaching. It's everything else that you have to get through in a foreign country.
It's also the beginning of recruiting season. If you are planning on recruiting for the 23-24 school year, now is the time to start looking. Get some great tips from this discussion. Start with some online research. Sign up for some key recruiting tools. Choose an International Teacher Job Fair like Search Associates, AASSA, UNI, or ISS. 
If nothing else, the social antics of this episode will entertain you!
The International Teacher Podcast is simply three teachers who have been teaching and living overseas. We love to share advice and stories about the best kept secret in education:  Overseas Teaching.

S2, E29 - Roberto Santos is the Head of School at International School Eastern Seaboard, located near Pattaya, Thailand.
