Q: FAO refused to give a letter of release or a letter of recommendation to me!

In August of this year, 2012, I emailed the FAO where I worked last year,  to ask if he would rehire me. He said yes, and said I must come ASAP, and he sent me a letter of invitation and a Z Visa form. That would have been great, except that my young daughter goes with me and he had her expired Passport Number on file, so he used that on the Z Visa form.  I emailed him  repeatedly and sent her new Passport Number, but he has been ignoring all my emails and will not contact me about the job. So, OK, if he found another teacher, that is OK, however, I need a LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION AND A LETTER OF RELEASE  from him. How can I make him do this? Obviously he thinks I am a good teacher, or he wouldn't have tried to rehire me. PLEASE HELP!

I don't understand what FAO is. Is it because he is on holiday?  If they don't  reply you after the holiday, do you need me to call and ask for you?  But, first tell me what FAO is. I am Chinese.

Foreign Affairs Office. All schools that hire foreign teachers have this office, which helps hire and process visa applications for the foreign teacehr. They also make sure we know and respect the schools rules and regulations.

Hi Brenda, I am Scott at CUIEE in Baotou, PRC.  We have three American teaching here and are needing more qualified teachers.  Our client load is increasing steadily so I'd like to know if you are interested in joining us.  Please let me know at your earliest convenience.  Teachers with family are welcome!  Best wishes and I hope things go well for you either way.

I'll see what we can do to proceed without a letter of recomendation.

A: If you received an online degree in most cases it should have been from a reputable college. If it came from a degree mill that definitely would be a problem. You should not worry about how they will contact this place. If the degree is considered authentic the people will know where to go to inquire. In my case I needed a copy of my diploma and one company in China recommended a Clearinghouse that was able to verify my degrees. They did not provide copies of the diploma, though. If the place where you received this degree is acceptable in your country then, it should be acceptable in China.Another point to consider you stated it was an MS degree. I have not aware of any programs that allow students to hop from a high school education to a Masters degree level education. With that said maybe you received a Bachelors degree. If that is the case submit that information.  I would not encourage you to lie. In that you definitely will not have any paper trail to back up your story. Some companies do not accept TEFL online especially if it came from International Open Academy. That place is a one room office. I would consider that a TEFL mill. It was such a waste of time.Do you have the ability to do searches online? -- slspringer22
