Hey Educators and Dreamers,It’s Novlet Simmonette, CEO of Step By Step Consultancy, and today I want to speak to you from the heart.
Let’s be real for a moment:Trying to apply for a U.S. teaching job on your own—especially through H1B or J1—is like training for a marathon without a coach.
Sure, you could try running every morning by yourself, download a few YouTube workouts, guess your own pace, and hope you’re doing it right.But let’s be honest... how far will you really get?
💡 Here’s the Truth: You Can DIY Your Way to Burnout—or You Can Train with a Coach.
When you have a coach, everything changes. You get a plan, a strategy, and a support system. Someone watches your form, gives you corrections, and pushes you when you start to doubt yourself.More importantly, a coach helps you avoid mistakes that waste time and energy.
That’s exactly what Step By Step Consultancy (SBSC) does for international teachers who dream of teaching in the USA.

🎯 Applying for H1B or J1 Is a Whole Journey
Let’s compare it to a fitness journey:
The H1B and J1 visa processes are like two training programs—both effective, but very different. Choosing the wrong one for your goals? That’s like training for a sprint when you’re meant for a marathon.
The U.S. school system? That’s the competition field. You’ve got to understand the rules, the expectations, the culture, and how to prepare—on and off the field.
Your teaching resume? That’s your form and posture. Get it wrong, and you may never get a callback.
And the paperwork? Oh, the paperwork...It’s like trying to set up your own home gym with parts missing and no instructions.

🧠 That’s Why We Created This Free Course

It’s like your first session at the gym with a coach:

And yes—you’ll even get a Certificate of Completion to add to your teaching resume or digital portfolio.
📣 Here’s Why It Matters
Because when you train with a coach, you don’t just go farther—you go faster, smarter, and with way less stress.
Without a coach? You might waste time, miss deadlines, or get rejected for something fixable.With SBSC? You get a clear, guided path, a team behind you, and a community cheering you on.
