![]() | Re: Resume for going home Depends what type of job you are looking for? You cannot avoid placing "English Teacher" on your resume. So the best is to emcompass the skills you received as an English teacher so that they can relate to the new job you are searching for.

![]() | Re: Resume for going home If you are going home to teach, a great place for teaching resume advice is A+ Resumes for Teachers. Also, as the advice that was given, focus on skills that you acquired and how they relate to the position you will be applying for. For example, "documenting program progress", "attention to detail", "customer service" (i.e. working with parents, etc.) Thanks! Michael G. Hines

![]() | Re: Resume for going home If you are looking for non-ESL teaching jobs, it would be best to highlight the transferrable skills that you have developed while away - such as presentation skills, people skills etc. Many employers outside of ESL, but still in education like Kumon maths & English tuition, are very keen to hire ex ESL teachers with experience abroad.
