Teaching English in Brazil
As the fifth largest country in the World, you can find good opportunities teaching English in Brazil, especially the larger cities (as well as some smaller ones). TEFL qualified teachers in Brazil can usually find work easily. Securing a position teaching English in Brazil can be considerably harder when not actually in Brazil itself, but it can still be possible. Salaries usually pay well enough to give teachers a comfortable lifestyle.
Most people looking for employment teaching English in Brazil just arrive on a visitor's visa and then begin contacting schools once in the country. There are English schools throughout the country, in small towns and large cities. Unlike almost every other country, big cities do not always offer better prospects for teaching English. If you decide to teach English in a small Brazilian town, the locals will greatly respect your decision to immerse yourself in their town and culture, and will be grateful of your presence. If you are looking for a uniquely Brazilian experience, then consider this option.
Pay is not great anywhere in Brazil, with low salaries in the country and larger in the cities, but it is quite easy to pick up private students, increasing your income by a large degree, sometimes doubling it. Always get to know people and offer your professional services as an English teacher. After you have gained some private lessons, you may well find that the students recommend you to their friends and family.
Securing a job teaching English in Brazil is, like all other South American countries, best achieved when in the country. You will have better results if you research where you would like to go in Brazil beforehand and simply go there. This will demonstrate to potential employees that you have shown an interest in the location and a good amount of drive and determination in actually being there. Schools will respect you for being there and this usually bodes well when applying for jobs.
Positions teaching English in Brazil sometimes appear on TEFL web sites so always keep checking, you can also check the archives for school contact details. Also, contact schools directly using language school directories and internet searches as a starting point.
