Hello fellow humans...
I am currently teaching elementary school in Brooklyn and I want to go down to southern Mexico for July and August. I would like to teach English but don't want to be "stuck" in one town or city. Is it necessary to get ESL certification before I go? If I am not certified, where can I teach and how do I find these schools?
Mexico is just the beginning... I hope to use my teaching experience to travel and am unsure if I should spend money on an ESL course. This lounge is the first stop in my quest for information.
Any help, suggestions, ideas would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!

| You probably don't need esl qualifications but it may be hard to find teaching during that time frame. Similar school holidays there and don't think many conversation schools would take you on for only 2 months. Best to just go down and check it out. Bring proof of teaching credentials-may need to be notarized. Me personally, I'd just go hang out on vacation if I were you. Then again maybe US teachers don't get paid so much. I know a substitute in Texas who makes only $50 a day. |
