Are There NEEDS of japanese or portugese teacher IN UK ?

We Answered:

You would not be able to get a visa on those grounds, or are you saying you have already got one?

Need is a relative thing and markets can be specific to location. But I would say languages are in decline in the UK, unfortunately. Generally speaking, demand for Portuguese is small, Japanese is slightly better off and both are still really far below Spanish, French and German. Teachers of these last three are much more readily employable. Even if you have a teaching qualification, unless you have a prospective employer I think you will struggle.

And by the way, I advise you to work on your English. Perhaps you could swap lessons with a native speaker if you find yourself here, as a means to get experience teaching - because I sure hope you are not assuming that just because you speak those languages you will be able to teach them effectively.

However, if you are qualified or have experience and transferrable skills in other areas, and are legally able to work, there are all sorts of multilingual jobs available. Any combination with Japanese is in high demand.

Rethink what your goals are. Best of luck

Does Barbados teach UK-style English in their schools?

We Answered:

"Checks" is just the American spelling. "Cheques" is the way it is spelled in other English-speaking countries, including New Zealand, Australia, India, etc - not just the U.K. In most other countries learning English, spellings like "cheques" are used just because there are more countries that use them. It also depends on where the textbooks were published. In one school where I taught overseas, students used British textbooks for grades 7-9 and American textbooks for 10-12, so they tended to use whichever spellings were in the textbook for their grade level.

How many schools in the UK teach creationism as part of the curriculum?

We Answered:

Here is the British Governments guide to teaching creationism in schools.
Quote:
"Creationism and intelligent design are sometimes claimed to be scientific theories. This is not the case as they have no underpinning scientific principles, or explanations, and are not accepted by the science community as a whole. Creationism and intelligent design therefore do not form part of the science National Curriculum programmes of study. "

why dont schools in the uk teach kids about recycling?

We Answered:

I guess cause they got enough trouble teaching the kids why they got to learn why some one in Africa does this or that is important to them
.
Or because the teachers are in the business and don't want competition a pound is a pound no matter who's purse it is in
