Teaching Jobs in Brazil
The level of demand for native speakers in Brazil is reasonably high. Unfortunately, TEFL salaries are relatively low and despite reasonably low living costs you certainly won’t be able to save much, if at all. Brazil is a remarkable, diverse country but your chances of seeing much of it whilst teaching are rather low given the poor pay and lack of holidays. As in most Latin American countries the students are lively and sociable and therefore a pleasure to teach. There is a high turnover of staff at language centres which says a great deal about the pros and cons. Geography: Brazil, a vast South American country, stretches from the Amazon Basin in the north to vineyards and massive Iguaçu Falls in the south. Rio de Janeiro, symbolized by its 38m Christ the Redeemer statue atop Mount Corcovado, is famed for its busy Copacabana and Ipanema beaches as well as its enormous, raucous Carnaval festival, featuring parade floats, flamboyant costumes and samba music and dance.
