High School Counselor
I help students with career, university, personal / social and academic issues.
Respond to students who come in with personal / social / academic issues that relate to their home life or friends or school. Deal with the minutia often associated with paperwork related to one's position. Deal with parents from other countries who may not fully understand the American educational system. Meet with university representatives from all over the world. Develop a fuller understanding of these educational systems so I can advise students who wish to apply there.
Here's the first step for college students
Go to a recruiting fair even if you aren't fully ready to make the jump to working in another country. Test the waters, so to speak. You might surprise yourself. Too many college students think in too narrow of a fashion.
"Teachers don't make that much money. Teenagers are so difficult to work with... why would you want to put yourself through that?"
