There is no such thing as sure proof in the Dominican Republic. Look into private schools as they pay a decent salary. Google some private schools, check their FB pages, and they'll usually announce when they're looking for new teachers. Good luck
A number of the Jehovah Witness missionaries teach English online. They say they make enough to live here comfortably but couldnèt survive in the USA off the same money.
I stole this from an old Delores post, this info is still great

If you have a teaching degree and experience, the schools listed above will hire you. Salaries range from about $12,000-40,000 US, give or take, depending on qualifications and experience.
If you have a Bachelors degree from a North American/British university in any subject & speak English as your first language (or with no obvious foreign accent), you can make $3000 US teaching English online through VIPKid. I have confirmed this with a friend who is doing this based in Ontario. But in addition to the education and speaking component, all you need is to pass an interview process, a clean record, and a fast internet connection.

Can anyone help me find that thread? I've searched in various ways and can't find it. Thanks!
At their maximum rate of $22/hour, that would be about 136 instructional hours a week, almost seven hours a day. As a retired teacher, I can tell you that is hardly realistic.
Haha obvious why I went into languages, isn't it, although I consistently rocked in algebra. My attention to detail is fading as I reach 70. I can hear my mother chastising me, "Wait until YOU get old." I meant 136 hours A MONTH. The facts remain the same: this would be an insane amount of time chatting in front of the laptop with Chinese kids every day. I noticed in the other thread about VIPKids the figure of $3000 a month was thrown out by someone originally from Ontario, living in the DR, and poopooed. Is it possible that figure is for Canadian dollars?
I'm referring here to a five-day workweek not a six-day Dominican workweek, for which it would still be a boatload of instructional hours per day.
