How to read these counts
We read each posting’s text. A job counts as mentioning teaching when it asks for, or says it welcomes, teaching or classroom experience.
- Look for the “Teaching experience counts” tag on each job.
- Years of experience are the posting’s minimum, in any kind of work, not only in teaching.
- A smaller group of jobs asks for no years at all; most state nothing.
