8 to 9 months position in Patagonia Argentina

About the Job

Overview

Fundación Escuela Bilingue Puerta del Sol will select 2 to 4 native TEFL certified teachers of English to teach at our school at primary and secondary levels.
This is a small school of very limited resources located in a beautiful small town in the Andes, Patagonia Argentina.
We are a Fundación that aims at providing a better and bilingual education to all kids regardless their social or economical conditions. Fees are nominal and only charged to those kids that can really afford them, so most of the functional expenses are covered and supported by the continuous work and effort of parents and teachers in our school community, and a very limited help of the local governments.
English teachers interested to come and live in Trevelin for the entire school year will teach 12 hours per week at the school (18 "school hours" of 40 minutes each) in exchange for:
- accommodation in a house shared with the other English teachers (minimum 2, max. 4)
- a Spanish tutor that will help you improve your Spanish while you are here
- the 100% of the income generated for whatever extracurricular courses that you wish to teach to the rest of our community (outside required hours at our school), for which you would have full access to resources and school infrastructure. This shall help you cover food and other living expenses.
School year starts on March 2nd but these English hours will probably be added at the beginning of April.
If interested and available to teach as of March or beginning of April at the latest, please send us your cover letter and CV, both IN THE BODY OF THE EMAIL... (NO ATTACHMENTS AT THIS STAGE PLEASE as our internet connection is very slow and limited here). Write to: englishintrevelin@gmail.com
The school will contact preselected candidates and arrange a phone or online interview to discuss all further details and evacuate all questions.
