Hello !

I'm considering moving to Dublin and naturally would like to secure some sort of job.

Im from New York and I am a certified (initial) teacher in the state.

I was wondering if anyone knew about teacher certification reciprocity or if I have to go through another certification process what it would look like.

I should also mention that I do not have a Masters Degree, which I have a feeling might affect the outcome.

Thanks in advance !!

Bridget

Thank you so much Norma! I really appreciate.

Out of curiosity do you teach in a state sponsored school or an international one ?
