Australia and its barriers for migrant teachers

 


Pic*2

 

 

 

Definition: 

More and more Slovenes are deciding to move abroad. European countries still dominate but on the other hand the interest to move in Australia is increasing. People migrate to Australia because of better economic conditions, higher salaries and also because of better living conditions. It should be emphasized that even in Australia newcomers do not necessarily get what they expected, they are not accepted as easily as they think they would be, because they are mainly interested in those who will benefit their country. Sometimes migrants find the perfect job, but because of Australian employment system, they are forced to do extra qualifications and that could be a massive problem because it usually takes a lot of time and money.

 

 

 

Research questions:

What are the main reasons which force people (in our case teachers) to move to Australia? ( Tina )
