Geraldine Said:

can i get a teaching degree at open university or online?

You can't qualify as a teacher by distance learning, since a very important part of the qualification is actual teaching practiee. Teaching is a job that involves working with people!

University of Phoenix Online Teaching Program?

We Answered:

I did not want to go to UOP at first (for my Masters in Ed) but I am a military spouse and UOP was the only school out there that worked to meet my needs. They have contracts with all of the Dodds schools (schools for military children) so that student teaching would be no problem for me even overseas.
Because of their reputation, I was still worried. I don't know which base we are going to next, so I called Dept. Ed in several states to ask if they accepted UOP (Ohio was one of those states) and every single HR person said yes and that most of thier current teachers complete their CE's through UOP and more and more teachers were getting their masters through them.
Like anyone else, I do not want to go through a masters program only to discover I can't get a job. I used several resources to decide if it was a good move for me, and all signs pointed to yes. I am not saying that everyone should go to this school, or that it does not do things that warrant the skepticism but I am saying that they are just as accredited, offer valid courses, offer free study guides for the cert. tests and have contracts with tons of schools for student teaching. Also, I have what is called an education specialist and she helps me take care of everything I need to meet my certification requirements. I will be starting student teaching this fall, and so far, I am very happy with my program. It feels legit to me, even though it is very much like a corporation. In the end, once I get a job...who cares if they were like a business or not?
Eventually, I am going to get a degree in Administration and by then, so many other schools will finally jump on board the convenience train, and I will look for a cheaper school to get my D or MA through.
Until then, UOP is meeting all of my needs.
I would say that you should call your HR departments in your area and simply ask. Some people posted here that their states would not take online schools, but I have not ever lived in a state where that was ever an issue. Still, you should check. It is not difficult to do. Just call HR's for districts in your area.
I hope this helps.

How do you find the college, university websites for online teaching jobs?

We Answered:

"Online teaching jobs"? Er. If you go to the websites of specific universities or two-year colleges, they usually have a link to employment opportunities, where they give a list of job openings for instructors and professors at their university.

How much can I earn teaching art at an online University? Can I teach from Europe?

We Answered:

I am not sure what schools the other poster refers to but my experience with teaching online has been a fraction of the amount stated by her. If you are "part time", then you can expect to be paid prorated based on the number of students in the "virtual class". I have been paid as little as $1,000 to teach a course, which barely makes it worth it. The core hour breakdown for that is not a lot and of course, there is no "core hour" for distance learning usually but based on a traditional school, it works out to about USD$20 an hour. On a bright note, I teach from a foreign country also and that makes my earnings from teaching tax free until I hit a certain threshhold, which never happens since teaching is my "part time" job. Good luck, but truthfully, you "can" make $3,000 a course, but you better have a "ton" of students enrolled.

Joe Said:

Is it possible to finish an online bachelors program from a US university while teaching english abroad?

We Answered:

University of Phoenix will allow you to complete your degree from anywhere in the world, while doing pretty much anything. They are accredited by the Higher Education Learning Commission (HUGELY important), North Central Association, and have a dynamite program. They are a little pricey, but my education through them has provided me a wealth of knowledge, while raising children and working full-time :-).

Good luck, you can find them either on the web to request info (but that'll take a while to get to you), or you can call them at 1-800-366-9699 :-).
