Does anyone have any experience with BridgeLinguatec?
I'm going to apply, but there isn't a lot of information about the company.
I received my CELTA in July, and I am looking for a first job. I prefer to teach adults, so this company looks good to me. I just want to gain some experience teaching adults so I can get my career started.
Thanks. |

| Bridge is OK. Pay is not all that, but it will help you get your foot in the door and some experience. Make sure to leave a few gaps in your schedule with Bridge for work in other institutes as there are loads of them in Santiago who pay a lot more than Bridge. |

also, the building and classrooms are really nice and equipped with everything you;d need as a teacher, places to hang out and prep/study/eat lunch/meet others, the company is organized and legit, the people are friendly.
its located a couple blocks walk off one of the major metro stations in a nice part of the city.
in chile, pay isnt everything (with policy, reliability, cancellations, location, etccc)... there are a lot of other factors that can make a job great or miserable. |

That's right, it's all about the teaching and spreading the word!
Hell, I'd do it for free if I didn't need food, shelter, clothes, cable, beer, internet, health cover.......... |

| ...maybe you misinterpreted my reference to hourly rate as "pay" for the issue of (not) getting paid at all. |

....well if you meant 'hourly rate', say it.
God, I hope you don't expect your students to assume what you mean!  |
