TEFL Job Placements Chile

Beautiful Chile, with its vast desert landscapes in the north and stunning glaciers in the south, is one of the most popular tourist destinations of the South American continent. Its vibrant capital city, Santiago, has a very cosmopolitan feel to it. This, and the fact that it's one of the safer cities on the continent, will reduce the initial culture shock for EFL teachers.

Chile is also one of the fastest growing economies in Latin America. The nation-wide ambition to learn English in order to stay competitive is a result of this growth and it’s opened the doors to many aspiring TEFL teachers. Chile is one of the more expensive countries in South America, but you can live relatively comfortable on a teaching salary. It’s common for teachers to give private lessons outside class times as well, to supplement their income. Your teaching salary is probably enough to support your travel within the country. You probably won’t feel the urge to cross borders until you’ve exhausted all that this nation has to offer. Teaching Chileans in the classroom on a daily basis, experiencing 24-hour life in a city that offers so much, and using your hard earned TEFL money to visit the overwhelming scenery of Patagonia and the Andes, will all contribute to your unforgettable learning experience in this complex and fascinating society.
