....i was pretty impressed with their website, and job descriptions....

they're UK based, but have many countries.....

for $800 US in Peru, not bad....sounds like mostly business classes, older adults as it states, "formal clothes"....

but still better than an all-girls junior high class Smile

I don't konw. Looking at salaries, they're lower than other places. Plus, they recruit for Britanico, which isn't the best place to work. NO vacations, and they tax around 30% and they won't let you work for anyone else teacahing privates or otherwise. So the search continues . . . .

hmmm...didn't know that about the taxes....i did see they work with Britanico...

but also, if you look at the salaries of some of the other countries, like Mexico...i saw one ad for $16,500 / yr...so, it probably depends on the school...

maybe, i'll take a look at their other ads and see what kind of schools they're recruiting for...

Britanico's known as a place to avoid for teachers. It's good for students, but about the same level as ICPNA for teachers.
