UK teacher wanting visa in USA
Hi, I would hugely welcome any interesting thoughts on my plan to come to the USA and work in a college drama department. I know that I am well-qualified for jobs, but for they would need to apply for visas for me, and maybe eventauly a green card. I know the official answers more or less, and the need for an honest immigration lawyer, but the real practicalities of companies applying for visas is something I would love to have more thoughts on please. Thanks you.
I am a theatre-director/workshop leader/ actor. |

Thanks you. I am a theatre-director/workshop leader/ actor. You could check out the VIF program, visiting international faculty. They give a 3 year J1 visa, non renewable. You are more likely to get a job somewhere in the EU, maybe at a private school, or Oz/NZ?????? Sorry to burst your bubble, but honestly only maths and science teachers are in any sort of demand. Best of luck! |

Although it varies from state to state, you would most likely need to get recertified in the state you want to work in. The best way to get a job would be to come over and spend a couple of years getting a masters and teaching licence, then hope you can get a job after. Even that would have a very low chance of actually getting a visa.
The only places that are desperate for teachers are inner city schools, and their the ones that generally don't have a lot of money for the arts. |
