is it possible for a well-qualified person to find short-term work in costa rica, say from late april to mid july? i figure if it's the low rainy season, schools might be willing to take on someone short term. will that be the case?

Anything is possible, but you'd have to luck out and find a company that needs a teacher RIGHT NOW come hell or high water.

You need to be in country interviewing to get a deal like that. I taught at Unversidad Latina in San Pedro for only 3 months (I intended to stay in C.R. longer but I hated living in San Jose). U.L. does not make teachers sign contracts. I liked my experience with them. Check out their website and see when classes begin.

The new bi mester at Ulatina in San Pedro will begin on September 10th.

However, all teachers who work at Ulatina are now required to get a work visa. This is a costly procedure and may not be worth it for 3 months work, especially when just starting you usually don't luck into full time hours.

hope this helps
