quote I am currently teaching English in Santa Cruz de la Sierra and I love it. There are TONS of opportunities, especially for native speakers. Right now I teach at the Centro Boliviano Americano which is located downtown, and they are always hiring. The classes range from elementary (ages 6-10) to adult (18). Also, if you want to earn more money it is very easy to put an add in the newspaper or put up flyers and give "clases particulares" for individuals in their homes or your home. Bolivia is pretty isolated so there are lots of people who would love to learn from a north american and there isn't much competition. Plus the culture here is amazing and laid back. My only complaint is the weather. For more information on Bolivia surf over to Boliviabella.com and learn about other opportunities. Come to Bolivia!
