Hi all,

Myself and my family are looking into relocating to Canada from the UK. Neither myself or my husband are on the required skills lists. However, he could have the chance of moving to an overseas job with his present employer. I on the other hand, would have to find employment. I am currently a fairly recently qualified teacher in the UK, teaching up to 11 years with a specialism in early years education. We have no family in Canada to sponsor us. So, the question is, would we still have a chance to be accepted into Canada if we were to find employment ourselves.

Thanks

Hello !

My wife and I are in teaching English as a foreign language. She has been teaching for 2 years now, while I have spent 5 years so far. I'm currently teaching high school students aged 15-19 years old. In addition to that, I teach Arabic (Classical and Moroccan Arabic) to American students under a Legacy Program -which is a state supported program by the US Gov.-

My query is as follows: Can i teach either Arabic or English in Canada? I do have a teaching certificate by the Moroccan Ministry of Education, does this allow me to teach in Canada too? if i need an equivalent in Canada, where and how to do it?

i appreciate your help.
