Ken said:The government just announced it was starting a major program to teach English and would be hiring a large number of ESL teachers. Sorry, don't know any of the details.
Thanks for your time-I'll keep watching and check the archives too.Naufrago said:Should be real easy, don't know about schools around there but in the cities it's a sure thing. Much easier if your here already and just walk in with your resume and a smile. Pay isn't too much, but with enough hours and some private students on the side, it can pay the bills, you will have to hustle though to make the money mean something. School starts this week, so come now or time your arrival prior to next trimester. I came mid trimester and they needed me to sub and take over some classes of teacher that quit. EFL is really big business here, and there are not alot of native speakers to teach it. People on the north coast should be able to give you some specific schools to check. Anybody know where this guy/gal should ask?

I contacted a few of the international schools and they want a teaching degree. Just so you know-and thanks again for responding.
