I was wondering if any of you had any thoughts on the possibility of finding work OUTSIDE the teaching market? That is, is it possible to find another source of income on a tourist visa?
I met a young israeli woman in CR, who was a server in a tourist town (and this, during the low season) who seemed to think being a native speaker of english might also lead to other opportunities besides teaching. I'm thinking along the lines of waitstaff, restaurants, bars,etc. Is this true? And if so, will being a male decrease my chances of landing such a position? thoughts, anyone?
Though my goal is to come and teach English, it is somewhat of a means to an end, and not an end in and of itself. Developing fluency in spanish is an important goal for me. To me, living in a spanish-speaking country would seem an excellent way to achieve this. And I would like to keep my mind open to all possibilites.
