I'm considering taking a position with Churchill School. Does anyone know anything about the school? What about the neighbourhood, Guadalupe? What's it like?

What if we reversed the roles for a moment ... and before any nay-sayers jumped in.. we asked the OP what it was that s/he liked about the position advertised. Perhaps those that have been here for a while might get a new perspective of/on what it is that's attracting new teachers to Mexico ?

dan.sara? What made you stop and think 'hmmm... this might be the one...'

I've been to Mexico twice and like the country a lot. My wife makes jewelry - lots of opportunities in Mexico City. The school seems well organized and conditions seem good.

I like you amigo! You're a funny guy. One of my brother-in-laws wife sold jewelry in Mexico City. She and MANY others she knew who were doing the same thing had to close shop. There wasn't enough money in it. I hope you have a backup plan for the jewelry gig.

All wonderful. Will you be educating young kids? If so, do you have experience babysitting? That will help you a LOT.

FAIR...& BALANCED

Does anyone have recent information on what it's like to work at Churchill? I've seen mixed reviews, but a lot of the information is from a few years ago.
