Welcome to mycareerbreak.ie. Thank you for visiting our site.
My name is Bernard Dalton, I am the founder and owner of mycareerbreak.ie. I am a primary school teaching principal in Glengurt NS, Tournafulla, Co:Limerick. www.glengurtns.scoilnet.ie
I founded this site in response to my own experiences teaching in Australia. I took a career break from Sept 2010 to September 2011. I travelled for 6 months in South America and spent the rest in Australia. It was my aim to begin teaching as soon as I arrived but this never happened!
The idea for this website came from my own experience trying to teach in Australia. As I sat in the Victorian Institute of Teaching’s headquarters , trying to explain who the Garda Siochana were, I thought to myself “There must be an easier way!”
So from September to December 2011, I began to register friends in the different teaching councils in Australia. These were my testers that enabled me to fully understand the registration process in each state.
When I was happy with the service I could provide I launched the website, this was the 7th January 2012.
Our teaching agencies
We have worked hard to set up reliable packages. Unlike Ireland, Teaching agencies are ten a penny in Australia, like any industry these can be superb, average or truly awful to work for. With the larger agencies you feel like a number that earns them money, you recieve no support or respect.This is no way for a skilled professional to be treated.
mycareerbreak.ie works closely with the agencies in our packages to ensure your treated with the respect your skills deserve. We know the owners personally, share common views on customer service and are extremely proud to call them our partners
