|
i have a bach. of business and several years experience in the business/stockmarket/banking fields.
i was interested in hearing from anyone who has experience or knowledge of teaching 'business english' in either SE asia or south america.
-how does it's remuneration compare with other forms of adult english teaching?
-whats the best job searching method? i didnt find much in the way of advertisements
-is it possible to get short term contracts, like 3-4 months? or is longer usually required?
any information whatsoever would be much appreciated.
cheers |

I don't have any specific information about it in Central/South America (haven't been there for 15 years) but for SE Asia:
- About the same as any other teaching but fewer jobs.
- Boots on the ground and personal references / contacts.
- Usually full year contracts (not worth it for the employer to go to the trouble of getting you a visa for less) but you can probably get single term jobs (not always with appropriate visas or permits) in places like Thailand or China.
There is always the option of working illegally on your tourist stamp/visa but there are risks to go with it.
