If this interests you, I suggest you get in touch with the American TV newscasters and see what they have to offer. CASE HISTORY No. 6. I only mention this at all because it's an example of a teaching job without the need of being a certified teacher. The American School, in Tangier, hires teachers without certificates. You need not have studied teaching to get a job. In fact, I know of one girl who taught at this school who hadn't even graduated from High School (although I doubt if she ever let them know that). The American School in Tangier is on the smallish side and has both American students and Moorish children and adults interested in learning the English language. At the time I was in Tangier they weren't paying particularly good salaries. As a recall it was fifty dollars per month, per class. If you taught two classes a day you made a hundred dollars a month. There are other examples of American schools where a teacher's certificate is not necessary. For instance, the school devoted to the families of the Courier the above mentioned U.S. Coast Guard cutter which is permanently stationed at Rhodes, Greece. The school here does not demand a teacher's certificate, and usually pays a hundred dollars a month for half a day of teaching. Next: Chapter 16 - Japan
