I'm glad it went well! I hope you have a great teaching experience. Is this your first online class? I was in the hiring process for U of P, but then my recruiter inexplicably stopped answering emails, so I'm assuming I'm done there.

Yes, it's my first online class.

It's with U of P - it's strange that the recruiter for U of P wouldn't tell you if she/he thought you were unsuitable. They don't seem shy like that. Maybe another email or perhaps you should apply again. That recruiter could no longer be there or something.

Out of curiosity, how did you find that job? Did they approach you?

Monster.com.

I responded to an ad on Monster.com.

I think they could use some English and writing teachers. The recruiter told me that when (bless her, she said "when") I get published, I just needed to let her know and they would qualify me to teach writing, too.

But I think they use an MFA or publishing credits to determine if a person is qualified.

U of P is very, very big on giving students good writing skills.

It pays $1435 for a nine-week class and you can teach up to 4 classes concurrently. I think that works out to 20 or so classes a year.
