My partner and I are Australians and hoping to teach english in Boliva or Brazil. I am a newly qualified Primary School Teacher and my partner is a Electrician. We were prepared to complete ESL qualifications if needed. Is it easy to find work in these countries? Will my partner find work without a degree?

Most schools look for a degree and a TEFL certificate. However in Bolivia there is a shortage of teachers so it may be possible for your boyfriend to find work based solely on his having a TEFL certificate.

It will mean, however that you will have to be there and spend time walking round to each school and seeing if they need teachers. You could strike it lucky on the first morning or you could find it hard.

A couple of links about teaching in these countries:

TEFL in Bolivia
TEFL in Brazil

bolivia is a good place to start with. yes they need teachers as of the moment but i've heard that it's a strict country. don't know if this is true. if you're interested, why don't you guys take the risk? who knows...
