I am an eighteen year old student currently attending Florida State Univeristy. I am interested in being an English teacher in Mexico over the summer. I am decently proficient in Spanish, and have no problems in English. Anyone know how I might go about finding a job?

Thanks.

Try IMARC Saltillo or Monterrey. IMARC stands for Instituto Mexicano Norte Americano de relaciones culturas.

In Saltillo ask for Mikaela Martinez, she is fluent in English.

Hello, My name's roman. Iam from carmen city and i hope that i can help you. my university needs a English teacher because nobody isnt speak english very fluenty. I think that all my classmates need a English teacher now . I thin that The Unacar can be a good reason for to arrive here. I think that my university can help you. And I think that everybody wants to meet a good teacher. For example in my university has a new English teacher. he is from Texas. hE IS A GOOD TEACHER BUT SOMETIMES his class are boring. His subject is boring and the topics too. I hope that you come at my city. I live in Carmen City Campeche. and the unacar is the best option. I hope that you think this. The web page of my school is http://www.unacar.com. You can get the telepnone numbers and you can contact to the university Don t worry. IM sorry!!! I know...I have so much problems with my English. I hope that you understand. Im sorrry for my vocabulary. Bye!!

It is too easy to find a job if you have got a Diploma and want to teach English; send me your job application form maybe we could offer you a good position; we are in Mexico City if you are interested.

Good Luck

Most places in Mexico now require a university-level degree Licenciatura, BS, Maestria, Masters, etc) plus an ESL or EFL certificate (minimum) .. to teach English at the University level and many language institutes. Just being a Native Speaker with an interest to teach (regardless of teaching credentials or experience) is no longer an employable condition of preference.

You will not find jobs in public/State schools or universities because all hiring is controlled by union lists, which require you to have citizenship status in Mexico. Also, due to its proximity to the USA, there exists an oversaturated supply of Mexican speakers of English. Most language departments in both Institutes and Universities are staffed by native Mexicans.

Your age is also a limiting factor for serious institutions. You might try the peace corps. Many institutions look for additional help during the summer to help with summer language programs for children. You might try something like this to start .. problem is that the Summer is drawing to a close soon.

If you want to teach English, I recommend selecting a different country with higher demand for Native Speakers and better salaries. The most that you would make in Mexico as a starting teacher is about $300 per month, enough to cover rent only.

If still interested in teaching in Mexico, you should try to get a Cambridge-level English teaching certification first. It will open some doors and show that you are serious about teaching English.
