Hi,
I am an Indian national on immigration to canada. At present I am visiting US. I have had my credentials evalutated from one of the registered agencies here. I have 12 yrs of experience teaching Maths and Physics to grades 6th - 10th in India. I have a Bachelor's in Science and Master's in Mathematics along with a Teaching degree from India.
I have been trying hard to find appropriate resources to sponsor an H1 for me to be able to teach in the US. Does anyone know of any recruiting agencies or boards that might be able to help? Please let me know if there are any sites that might help too.

Generally, public school districts don't sponsor teachers for H-1B status. It's too
much trouble for them. But some school districts have become so desperate,
especially for teachers with certain specializations like math and science, that
they will sponsor for H-1B. See http://certificated.lausd.k12.ca.us/cert/new%20pag-
es/foreign_transcript_evaluation.htm, for example.
Evidently New York City Schools have hired 730 teachers from abroad for this school
year. See http://www.opinionjournal.com/editor...ml?id=95001026.
If you try general recruiting boards for teachers, and then explain to the
prospective employer that you are willing to pay for a good immigration attorney to
do the paperwork, you might have some success. See

I post to this forum because I am a British Expatriate living in the USA. At the risk of sounding controvertial, I would suggest that if you meet neither of these criteria you bog off elsewhere.
