 advice needed  26th Jun '07 9:51 AM

I'm not sure if this has been covered before, I looked but did not see anything.
Would anyone like to tell me what I can expect when I approach schools and tell them I am looking for work teaching English. I have roughly 6 months experience, a great TESOL certificate from the University of Toronto in Canada and an Education degree. I taught math and physics for a number of years.

What should I be looking at for pay? What kind of questions will they are ask me? Will they be quizzing me on grammar and things like that to see what I know?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

"No other job in the world could possibly dispossess one so completely as this job of teaching. You could stand all day in a laundry, for instance, still in possession of your mind. But this teaching utterly obliterates you. It cuts right into your being essentially, it takes over your spirit. It drags it out from where it would hide."
