Hi there,
Just wanted to say hi and to introduce myself to you all. My name's Pauline, i'm 26 and married to Jay, 36 and we have a beautiful baby boy, Jakob, who is 12 weeks old.
Jay and i have been talking about emigrating to Oz for a while- the price of living in the UK is getting to us. I've lived and worked in Oz before and i much prefer the way of life over there.
I'm currently a sahm, i have a degree in Religious Studies and Scottish History. Jay doesn't have a degree but works in the car business- he sources hi-performance cars from Japan and also parts for Japanese cars for his employer in the UK. Once the cars arrive here they either sell it whole or break it for parts. Not sure if his job has an actual title. Oh, he can also translate Japanese to English.
I'm thinking of either going back to do a PGCE in primary teaching, or a TEFL/TESOL/CELTA course. Just wanted to ask a few questions:
- If i did a PGCE here, would i have to re-train over in Oz?
- Which of the 3 English language courses would they looked at more favourably?
- What are our chances of getting in if we don't have enough points, but have enough money? And how much money would we need to have?
Not sure if i have to post these questions onto another link.
Anyways, hope someone can help.
Look forward to getting to know you all.
