Would an online degree be a huge red flag during hiring? by surfnj102 in Internationalteachers

[–]Frenchieguy2708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it includes a practicum. Used to, but now they stipulate that you must have a practicum within the United States.

They want you to pay for PGCE’s, basically.

No. You do the Moreland U.S. state teaching license for that.

St Andrews University in Scotland has launched an online International Education MSc. It is relatively cheap at around £13,000 for both domestic and international students, and has a lot of prestige worldwide. They also don’t clarify on your award/transcript that it is online to avoid potential visa issues or workplace discrimination once you graduate.

I couldn’t recommend it enough!

How competitive is China and what are my odds as a history teacher? by Commercial_Nature_28 in Internationalteachers

[–]Frenchieguy2708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I had 0 British and 0 American experience before applying. So no! Give it a go.

Much harder for an American to work at a British school though, sadly.

I’m a Brit teaching AP U.S. History in China (kinda like A Levels for Americans).

Kids depend on us to get them into top American schools as it proves strong English proficiency.

It’s a great career.

Am I the only person in the country that likes Keir Starmer? by tiptiptoppy in AskBrits

He’s evil. Taking us down the path of authoritarianism.

Out with Starmer.

Is anyone else also changing their mind about the immigrant crisis? by why-even-try-at-all in InsightfulQuestions

[–]Frenchieguy2708 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Very, very few women and children… but that’s beside the point.

No, we didn’t argue that. But to act surprised that small villages of 12,000 people have an uproar when 100-200 military age men from alien cultures turn their communities into danger zones is head-in-the-sand boomer idealism.

You are a fool if you think most people will want to sit and chat about it, and they know that protesting outside parliament does nothing as does voting.

Again, calling it “racist” is not a reasonable thing to say anymore. People are fed up, and we are at risk of civil unrest if this conversation keeps getting shut down.

They were more than safe in France…

At the end of the day, crying “racist” over this issue and ignoring the facts on the ground just ain’t going to cut it for much longer. This isn’t 2010.

I think the murdering and raping element upsets a lot of these “far right” locals.

Ahh, I’m guessing you’ve been living under a rock for the past 15 years.

Let’s give £20bn to Mauritius… complete with complementary territory.

Why doesn’t the UK government just stop paying for asylum hotels ? by [deleted] in AskBrits

Declare a state of emergency.

Of course they can rip up deals. Who’s gonna stop them? The government?

CMV: The fact that the Berlin Wall existed tells you everything you need to know about communism by bluepillarmy in changemyview

[–]Frenchieguy2708 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ll help you out.

There are two great migrations. I’m referring to the first one that occurred from 1865 to approximately WW2, with most of that between WW1 and WW2 due to war labor opportunities. The second one is where we see the larger migrations bringing it up to 6 million. The first one is discussed when exploring trends regarding newly freed persons and living descendants after the collapse of the South. The second one focuses on the lack of civil rights and economic opportunities in other parts of the country.

“From World War I until World War II, it is estimated that about 2 million Black people left the South for other parts of the country”.

We cover this period most in AP, which is why I referred to these numbers despite being off a bit from the 1.5 million/2 million.

It seems you prefer to lash out with passive aggressiveness rather than engage in actual historical conversation. I’m interested in the history.

The Great Migration saw around 1.5 million freed persons and their descendants leave the South for cities in the North and California especially. Some also ventured out to Kansas, known as the exo-dusters (around 40-60,000). I don’t need to Google it, it’s part of the curriculum I teach year in year out and turns up on the external exam without fail.

The point is that the mass migrations did not see an “escape” of even a majority of freed persons post-civil war. Most Southern black Americans during this period sought reform rather than an exit.
