Hello, 

Sorry if I'm not suppose to post this here... 

My names Richard, I'm 21 years old and I'm living in England. I became CSIA Ski Level 1 when I was about 17. I have been teaching pretty much full-time every winter since I passed. I have only been teaching on a dry ski slope in England. I have been skiing on snow but not taught on snow. I am more than capable of teaching any age and sex anything from the very beginning (putting ski boots on) to teaching parallel. I would like to find a teaching job abroad (no preference as to where) but as this is my first time teaching abroad I don't really know where to start. I would be able to work from September to the end of February every season, hopefully starting next season (2013/2014) if I can get a job. 

I would also be bringing my girlfriend with me who would be looking for a non-skiing job, she will be 18 and finished her college course of Beauty Therapy but she will accept anything (chalet work etc).Im basically looking for advice and perhaps a point in the right direction. I am very good with the public and have been working with the public since I was 16. 

 Thank you in advance

Hello Ricard,
Is the dry slope Gloucester by any chance?

You definitely won't get a job teaching in France with your qualification, not even as a host ( see thread on here). I googled and came up with a link which says head to USA or Canada

I don't know what other European countries look for, but I think it unlikely a Canadian level 1 would be enough.
