As schools and recruiters begin scheduling interviews for teaching positions starting in early 2024, our Job Placement Service team has researched where the most plentiful job markets are likely to be in the new year, both in terms of number of openings, and benefits on offer. As is the annual tradition here at Oxford Seminars, we're happy to share ...
It was January 2020, and I had just completed my initial training at Oxford Seminars, only to realize very quickly that, due to COVID-19, there would be no travel for the foreseeable future and therefore no opportunity to put my new skills to use in an international setting.

I’ve never been the type of girl who likes to go four-wheeling. Haven’t ever thought of it as something to enjoy on the weekend.
