Hi there. I'm a newbie to the forum. I have some questions about employment on the Yucatan Peninsula. My wife and I are currently travelling through Mexico, now in San Cristobal de Las Casas, and heading to Tulum within the week. We're going to look for work once we get there, in Tulum if possible (friends there). We'll be looking for work pretty much anywhere along the peninsula though and were wondering if anyone has suggestions or guidance for us. Thanks!

If Villahermosa is not too far off the path, PM me.

I work in Playa del Carmen. After two hurricanes this year, business might be a little slow in some institutes. You won't find much in Tulum, but might want to try Puerto Aventuras or Playa. Cancun is another option.

If you want to make a lot of money and work at a school that allows you COMPLETE academic freedom, PM me. There are jobs in Cuidad del Carmen, C�mpeche ( the other side of the peninsula ). It is not the Caribe, but the beach is nice. We have two Canadians on staff.

Be very careful of promises of good money and academic freedom. They may have you turning tricks on the corner by the end of the month. Wink

Playadelsol, Please dignify yourself and our profession by avoiding remarks about prostituting teachers. I am fully in agreement that people should be careful in choosing a job. The school is rated # 1 in the state and # 34 in the country. A school that mistreats the teachers doesn�t have those qualifications. Our school has an 800-seat auditorium that hosts national and international cultural events. We have 600 students in a private K-12 program. I work in the four-story air-conditioned high school. The teachers have first class offices with computers. We go to continuing education classes in Mexico City regularly. It is a dream job.

There is more than just missing Canadians that aren't adding up in your posts my friend. Rolling Eyes BUT I am sure you will have a sarcastic retort or an insult to throw my way, and will continue to shamelessly promote your school in this rainy, humid, bug infested hell-hole area of Mexico until the moderators shut you down. It is obvious you believe you are fooling the masses...well maybe you ARE fooling those that don't live and work in Mexico........so shame on you!

If you can find an insult I have posted I will post an apology. Unlike you, I have been polite and conciliatory. We have very, very few mosquitoes. It is cool in the mornings and evenings, and it is far from a hell-hole. Your opinion, while valued, is very UNTRUE. I urge all interested people to search all your posts and compare them to all my posts. The difference in attitude and intent will be shocking.
