Teach in Latin America
Updated 20 September 2009
Latin America is a distant destination that many will visit, but only a few will actually get the chance to live in this exotic paradise. The demand for English is soaring in Latin America and with The LA Job List, you'll have access to coveted teaching jobs at your fingertips. The lists include the names of schools along with their emails and websites so that you can contact them yourself without having us set up the interviews. This allows you the flexibility to organise your own interviews depending upon your needs. The casual lifestyle and low cost of living means that while you may not save a lot while working here, your salary will go a long way. Imagine only working 25 hours a week and still being able to go out to dinner, go dancing at a disco, listen to a live concert, or even dash off to another city over the weekend. Less teaching hours mean that you'll have plenty of time to explore the city, take language classes, volunteer, or just relax. Learn more about teaching in Latin America in Country by Country FAQ and the FAQ Latin America.

What's the LA Job List?
The LA Job List contains school listings for countries all over Latin America. There are five sets to choose from and various contact methods are listed so that you can start sending out your CV now. See the Sample Listing to see what the lists look like. Take a look at what other teachers have to say in the Reader Reviews section.

What's not included?
The LA Job List cannot guarantee you a job. Many factors, such as how long you will stay, your education, experience, knowledge of the English language, and schedule all influence employeers. While The LA Job List will give you access to contact details for schools across Latin America, it's up to you to pass the interview.

Please also keep in mind that Latin Americans stress personal contact, which means that employers will probably only offer you a job after they meet you. Employers often get emails from people who think about coming to Latin America and never show up, therefore employers are wary about offering jobs to people that they haven't had a personal interview with.

The good news is that through emails, you can make a good first impression. Make sure that your cover letter is tailored to the job. Don't just send out mass emails. You need to tailor your CV to teaching. And make sure that you come across in a professional matter, including in your spelling and punctuation. In your email, mention when you will be arriving and ask for an interview. Even if they don't respond. Be sure to follow up once you arrive, go to the institute and ask for an interview.

Lastly, remember that The LA Job List does not contain current job offers, but rather lists of schools. Here in Latin America, most English teaching jobs go unadvertised as many institutes constantly need teachers due to increased enrollment and classes.

The LA Job List began in 2006 when I recognised there was a lack of a list of schools in Latin America. My goal was to complile a list of schools, institutes, and universities around Latin America, so The LA Job List was born. It started on a forum and in 2008, I created this website.

Why Advertise on The LA Job List?
Traffic: Averaging 2500 visitors a month, The LA Job List continually comes up in the first page in Google searches. Limited advertising space means more informed and efficient traffic to your site.

Content: The LA Job List targets a niche market and as such no one comes close to the information in terms of content. This site was designed based on what the viewers wanted and asked for.
