Country info and advice - Bolivia
The following comments are from teachers who have taught, or are currently teaching, in Bolivia. If you are a teacher and have some advice to share, please add it here.
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!
