You'll have a much easier time finding a good job in a southern ciy with a warm climate that you would in a northern city.





Many southern/western cities have growing populations and, therefore, a much greater demand for teachers.





It's much harder to find jobs in the northern, rust belt cities (Cleveland, Buffalo, Upstate NY, Detroit) where population is declining. Another person said teachers are in short supply all over the country-- this is just not true. In the area where I teach, we have almost a hundred candidates for a single opening.





Florida has plenty of jobs, but class sizes are notoriously high. I'd avoid Florida, if possible.





California has the climate you're looking for, but I don't think the demand for teachers is high. You might have a hard time getting a job there.





Las Vegas has a huge population boom, and their schools are decent. If you can stand the heat, it's a good bet.





Phoenix/Tempe/Flagstaff has good schools and a high demand for teachers. Might try there as well.





North and South Carolina are also a popular choices for teaching job candidates-- a good idea especially if you're looking to live on the East coast. Climate can be chilly in the winter, but decent overall. Schools are good. Demand for teachers is higher than most areas.





Hope this helps you....





On anther note, if you're looking for a teaching job, here's a link to a good eBook. It's got information about finding jobs, interview advice, and common teacher interview questions and answers. Maybe it can help you. http://www.iwantateachingjob.com





Best of luck with your new career and with your moving decisions!
Reply:Tons of teaching jobs are opening up in Arizona. Great place to live %26amp; work.
Reply:There are lots of teaching jobs down here in South Carolina. What is you degree in? Elementary, Secondary? The pay down here isn't great but the housing is very cheap! Where do you live now?
Reply:Southern states. Texas Georgia, Florida, etc.
Reply:FLORIDA - we need some serious GOOD teachers down here!
Reply:My friend just got a job as a second grade teacher in Palm Beach, i think the Florida market is in need of a lot of teachers, but it does get quite hot there.
Reply:I recommend the US Virgin Islands.


I met a few teachers while I was working in St. Croix last summer.


They have many openings, both in the local public schools and in private academies.


I'd start by checking the local newspaper websites there: http://stx.onepaper.com and www.virginislandsdailynews.com
Reply:Arizona is looking for teachers. Would that be warm enough?????
Reply:I live in Georgia, it's get hot instead of warm though. lol
Reply:Texas. Try to stay away from the really BIG ISD's in the metroplexes and go for a smaller ISD. Plano has really good schools and so does Richardson, and McKinmey. Any of the smaller outlining communities that aren't part of DISD......they have all sorts of problems because they are SO SO SO big.
Reply:how warm?





florida? california?





death valley?


just how warm
Reply:You can go to teacher-teachers.com and put in your application. They post occasional jobs. Probably your best option is to pick the states you are interested and go to the state department of education for that state. Look up the teaching requirements for that state and see if they have a job posting page. Many states do. I have found teaching positions in other states by using a search engine and putting in the words


"state you're looking in" teaching jobs. I usually get at least one site for that state.
Reply:You should look at Craigslist for posted teaching positions in Metropolitan areas all over the world.
Reply:If you can teach English - worldwide jobs on the eslcafe.





If you teach other subjects tesjobs.co.uk for international jobs.





Good luck
Reply:Florida is looking for teachers...please get a haircut though before setting foot in a classroom.
Reply:you should look into teaching requirements per state, that could help eliminate a few choices. any resume website will let you search for jobs everywhere. if you are a member of a teachers union they probably have a website you can search.
Reply:Jacksonville, FL Duval County Schools is hiring, checkout the following website: www.dreamsbeginhere.org
Reply:los angeles unified school district is always trying to recruit teachers. you cant beat the weather!
Reply:How warm? And do you speak any other languages? Is pay an issue?
Reply:check out morono unified school district (link below). It is in the desert above palm springs about 35 miles away. It gets hot in the summer and cool in the winter. Beautiful area near Joshua Tree national park. For weather info look up Joshua tree, yucca valley or twentynine palms, Calif. Good luck.
Reply:Teachers are in short supply all over the country due to poor salary, and lack of government support. If you can teach math, you can work anywhere. I would consider the cost of living in a area before you moving there. Southern California is a great place to teach. Plenty of teaching jobs, but teacher salary is below cost of living there.
Reply:Florida's public schools are always in need of teachers. Good luck
Reply:in henderson and las vegas nevada, teachers are needed EVERYWHERE





there are even employment incentives to become a teacher





i no longer live in nevada, but as a student there cramped in a classroom with 40 or more kids, then moving to texas and being in classrooms with as little as 3 kids, i know nevada needs teachers





(besides the fact it was ALWAYS on the news)





cost of living is expensive in nevada though. not nearly as bad as california however





good luck with your search





for nevada go to...
