In response to: "3 Proven Ways to Land a Teaching Job"
http://www.teachhub.com/news/article/cat/14/item/811
In this blog post by Donzo Morton there are three ways in which the author discussed how to have better chances of landing a teaching position in today's tough teaching market. Number one was to be aggressive! There is no shame in being a little bit pushy in today's job market. Even if you are consistent and maybe even a little pushy, it is better than being passive and not fighting for it a little. Second way was to use your telephone. The internet is widely used nowadays and there is very little voice communication. I agree with Morton that there is a special bond that can be made through a telephone call and actually speaking with a principal or secretary. Lastly, upgrade your information that you are giving to the schools. Principals are looking for teachers who know and want to use technology. Morton suggests adding your website to your resume as well as your email and phone number. A website shows principals that you use technology and teacher websites can be created for free!
