I am looking for one or two people interested in teaching English in Nueva Ocotepeque, Honduras for the 2016 school year (February 1-November 1). This is a great opportunity. The town is wonderful, the food is delicious, and the people who not only pay, but look after you, are extremely generous and kind. I myself worked for them in 2010, and since then have kept in close contact, which is why I am helping them find someone for this year.
The gig:
If you like kids, it's easy. Your work day would be from 7:30-12:30pm, with the rest of the day to take naps, go hiking, explore the town, or make even more money teaching English privately. You would have primary grades (first through sixth), with each class lasting 40 minutes. The position includes a fully furnished apartment with internet and food provided. They also will pay you 5,000 Lempiras a month (roughly $250.00, which is WAY more than enough to live off of, considering all possible utilities and bills are already paid for.
The town:
Nueva Ocotepeque is a small but bustling town on "Calle Internacional" (The International Highway) and is surrounded by gorgeous mountains. It is located 5 minutes from the border of El Salvador and 20 minutes away from the Guatemalan border. It is a GREAT location for traveling on the weekends. Locally there are cloud forests, rivers, hot springs, and a waterfall. On the Carribean coast there are some of the best beaches and diving areas in the world (and also the cheapest). The food is delicious. The national food there is the baleada, which believe me, you will become accustomed to very quickly.
Qualifications:
High school graduate
Native English speaker with clear accent
Experience working with children is a plus
Great English teachers only speak English, but if you have some Spanish knowledge, that will help
Be able to supply 2 professional references
