Teaching English In Uruguay Hi Sophia, I thought about teaching English when I first arrived here and I contacted Berlitz - their rate of pay is TERRIBLE! It would be impossible to survive on it here. People think South America in general is "cheap", let me tell you that the cost of living in Uruguay is NOT "cheap"! Yes you can teach English in Uruguay, there are MANY schools and obviously they would prefer native speakers so in that way you have an advantage. Do you have teaching experience or would this be your first job? There is one place I know of called The Guildford Institute. They pay very good wages AND they give you a free place to live (which is obviously the biggest cost of living). I've have known a few people that have worked there and they enjoyed it. |
