Country info and advice - Paraguay
The following comments are from teachers who have taught, or are currently teaching, in Paraguay. If you are a teacher and have some advice to share, please add it here.
I taught in Paraguay, South
America for approximately 2 years. It's quite easy to obtain English teaching
work in Paraguay without formal qualifications. However, there are more
opportunities and some institutes pay more if you have qualifications: TESOL,
TEFL or Degree. The academic year is from March-November/December. The best time
to look for jobs is around the start of the first term in March. Paraguay is a
very affordable country to live in. In Asunción all buses have one fare which
makes it extremely practical in travelling from one lesson to another. It can be
very hot and humid and travelling, so smart casual for many classes is
tolerated.
