Would love to hear about your experiences.

I live in Baños Ecuador and I am an English teacher at Mayra's Spanish School. (www.mayraspanishschool.com) I do not have a bachelor's degree, nor TEFL and although I do not recieve monetary compensation, I work in exchange for a great apartment. Sometimes it is easier to work out a barter situation because the pay is low here in Latin America. People don't have money to give but they do have things to exchange.
Teaching English is an excellent way to help people, particularly in tourist areas where it is a great asset to the people. If you are interested in corresponding more about teaching English in Ecuador I'd be happy to talk more about it.

You can achieve your dreams,

I have a buddy that spent a few years in Japan teaching English as a second language. Email me your contact info and I'll give you his email address. He's a really nice guy and I'm sure he'd be into answering any ?'s and giving insight.

Cheers,

I don't know exactly how long I'd want to live/work in another country.  I'm assuming that at first I might want to make it 3-6 months.  Then back to the States and work as a Temp to earn more income. 

I definitely need to find ways of making money while doing things like this.  Anything I can do to make this adventure a business write-off would be awesome I think. 

Got any suggestions for me?

Thanks,
