TEFL Brazil
TEFL course and TEFL Jobs in Brazil
Brazil is the largest country in South America and the fifth largest
in the world. It borders on all but two countries in South America and
offers the world’s highest levels of animal and plant biodiversity.
Its complex blend of people, landscapes and cultural tradition is a
world unto itself.
The Amazon, the world’s largest tropical rainforest, sprawls
across a chunk of Brazil roughly the size of the continental United
States. It contains vast uncharted jungle, huge rivers and tens of thousands
of birds and animal species. South of the Brazilian Amazon lies the
Pantanal, a vast area of flooded swamp land that offers the best chances
for seeing jaguar, tapir and other large mammals. Then there is Iquazú
Falls, the tremendous plunge of water that marks the intersection of
Brazil, Argentina and Paraquay.
The TEFL program is located in Rio de Janeiro, one of the most beautiful
cities in the world and known to Brazilians as the “Cidade Maravilhosa.”
Although Rio is famous for its festive atmosphere, it is also headquarters
to some of Brazil's largest national and multinational companies. The
city lies between Guanabara Bay, the legendary beaches of Copacabana,
Ipanema, and Leblon, and tropical rain forests of Rio’s surrounding
mountains.
The school is located in the heart of downtown Rio and is an easy walk
from the historic center and a variety of theaters, museums, cafés
and restaurants. The school is a short bus-ride away from the gorgeous
shores of Copacabana, where language students can volunteer to teach
English to children in the hillside favela communities. English teachers
are in hot demand in Brazil, which boasts a hundred or more private
language schools.
Rio comes to a virtual standstill during Carnaval season in February
or March as parties, dancing, and the Samba music take over the streets.
At the Sambodromo, a specially designed stadium for school parades,
you can watch elaborately and scantily dressed participants sway and
jump to the beat of Samba. Rio's relaxed atmosphere, beautiful beaches,
and friendly people make this city an unforgettable experience you can't
miss, and a perfect place to learn Portuguese.
