I don't know what currency you are talking about and can't comment on the amount. You can apply for Express Entry on your own without an agent. Right now you need to have around 440+ to be selected. For a family of three, you would also need to demonstrate that you have around $20K in Canadian dollars in savings to help you establish yourselves in Canada. It will cost you an additional $2-3K in fees, medical costs and other expenses to apply.

I would recommend that you stop looking for teaching jobs in Canada. Teaching is a competitive field in Canada and you will not get a job as a foreign worker. If you want to teach in Canada, you should focus on getting PR first. Note that you will have to go through a certification process once you arrive in Canada before you will be able to teach at the primary or secondary school level.

Teachers need post-secondary education degree. (Bachelor of Education (or other) then a four semester teacher preparation program) And after that, each province has their process for certification.
Even for little kids, they usually require early childhood education certificates.

May well be many but the OP should be wary of immigration consultants that make promises they cannot possibly keep such as PR along with a teaching job for example.

Yes - you'll need to go through a certification process before you'll be able to teach in Canada. The process differs from province to province. I'd recommend you research the specific process for the province where you will be living.

Here are the admission requirements for the Ontario College of Teachers. You must belong to this organization if you want to teach in Ontario. Note the Educational requirements.

In that case you may need to wait until you have obtained PR and moved to Canada before you apply.

Note that you also need to provide an experience letter from your employer as part of the Express Entry application process.

Hi Syclla,
I am working as a preschool teacher for 6 years but my education does not match with educational requirements mentioned on cic website. I have done BBA in Finance and PGP in Finance. I have read that teaching is regulated profession in Canada and certificate from province is required. I am concerned that will my PR Application be rejected on the basis that my education does not match with educational requirements in NOC 4214 - early child educators and assistants. I have this doubt because this is regulated NOC. Please advise.

The letter is just for the certification board. Most foreign teacher need retraining before working in most Canadian schools. There may be some private schools that are willing to employ you. There is a 1 year course you can take to transition to be a BC teacher. Most foreign teachers are not able to teach in Canada.
