I have a question. I really enjoyed my time in the DR over the summer, as I spent 5 weeks there learning Spanish and doing volunteer work and travelling all over the country. I have researched many schools and would preferably like to live in Santiago. I would like to go teach English there and wanted to know the pay rates for doing so. I have seen some postings on other sites that say the pay is not great for North American standards, but then others that say that it is. So here are my questions:

1) Would i get paid in pesos or my dollar (Canadian) or American?
2) What is the pay rate for native speakers of English coming to teach in the DR?
3) Is there room and board provided?

If anyone could answer that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
