Native Tongue is a private English Language Institute in the city of Ibague, Colombia.
Located 200 km. west of Bogot, Ibague is a city of 500, 000 inhabitants with most modern amenities. The city is situated in a valley surrounded by tropical mountains and has a climate that is near perfect, normally reaching 28 and dropping to 18 at night. Although Colombia does have some political and economic problems, safety is no more a concern than it would be in any large North American city. The people are very sociable and the city is vibrant with activity and nightlife. Native Tongue is Canadian owned and operated. The classrooms, equipment and ideas are all modern. Students will be of all ages and the courses will be very dynamic for both the student and teacher.We are looking for experienced teachers to start work immediately. A clear voice with a neutral 'North American' accent is important. An outgoing, energetic person is a must. Spanish is not necessary. You must have an ESL teaching certificate.
We offer:
-1,000,000 Colombian Pesos monthly (approx. $600.00 Canadian).
-Airfare compensation in the form of a bonus at the end of your contract.
-Medical insurance.
-A secure, modern apartment with three bedrooms and two bathrooms will be shared with other teachers. Utilities, including high speed internet are included.
-Maid service.
-Four weeks paid vacation plus approximately 15 other paid holidays.

Note: In Colombia your compensation would equate to three times minimum wage or double what a local teacher is paid.Send a complete resume and photo to be considered for a position.
