beckloud comments on Any Demand for an International American Accredited School in Medellin, Envigado, or El Poblado?

Critter, I`m In Colombia if I could be of any help to you or your Organization just drop me a line. In fact there is a great need and demand for Bilingual schools in Colombia.few days ago I was reading about the 5.000 largest companies in the Colombian Money Magazine(revista dinero) when I saw that many of those "companies" were in fact bilingual schools posting thousands of millions of Colombian cop in sales and profits.Source: Revista Dinero Issue: # 278 from May 25, 2007 e-mail: www.dinero.com for instance see: Gimnasio Britanico LTD.

 

beckloud comments on Any Demand for an International American Accredited School in Medellin, Envigado, or El Poblado?

Critter, for your information I just posted the above recent article that I bumped into.

 

beckloud comments on Any Demand for an International American Accredited School in Medellin, Envigado, or El Poblado?

Recent studies suggest that Colombia does not have Real Bilingual Schools Colegios bilingues en colombia no hay !! 1- para que un colegio sea bilingue se requiere que por lo menos, 1 de cada 3 estudiantes sea nativo anglo parlante o sea un minimo del 33% , por que los niños aprenden a hablar ingles nativo es cuando juegan en el recreo y cuando se socializan con otros niños nativos angloparlantes y eso aqui no lo hay.!! 2- todos los docentes sin excepcion tienen que ser nativos anglo parlantes, aquí en colombia escasamente tienen 2 maximo 3 por colegio "bilingue". 3- los dueños de los colegios deberian por lo menos saber hablar algo de ingles, estudios recientes demuestran que el 99% de los dueños de colegios no sabe hablar el idioma ingles, por lo tanto carecen de recursos intelectuales para evaluar la calidad de la enseñanza por ellos mismos.

beckloud comments on Mexico beats Paraguay big time 6 goals to 0 ......

I know Mexico is not in Colombia, but many here at PBH are bitter about the fact that Paraguay defeated so bad the Cafetero team Colombia, 5 to 0 wich is humiliating for Colombia. Now Paraguay has paid the price!!!

beckloud comments on Teaching English in Bogota

I`ve been here in Colombia long enough to know the Teaching market so I would be prepared for 100% to back out, if I charge $30,000 COP an hour, and not even think of charging 70,000 COP for 1.5 hours regardless of the number of Masters Degrees in Education and teaching that you might have.

 

beckloud comments on English teachers, we need 7 for Bogota.

Wow....$3`000 Mill......or .......$ 3,000.Thous........A month...That´s sounds like pretty good money !!! ....Arf, don`t say it too loud please.....somebody might try to take it away from me........

beckloud comments on English teachers, we need 7 for Bogota.

beckloud comments on English teachers, we need 7 for Bogota.

Orestesdd,as I understand ,Definitely, there is a huge demand and need not only for English Teachers but also for Computer teachers, Math teachers, and the Good news is that you do not have to speak any Spanish whatsoever

beckloud comments on English Teaching Books

Try San Victorino in the Down town, that is Av Jimenez and Cra.10Th Which is also a good place to buy inexpensive books.

 

beckloud comments on English teachers, we need 7 for Bogota.

I know them! They`re OK, They pay from $30,000 to 45,000 Colombian pesos per session.
The company`s name is Petersons(brick and mortar school) they teach only adults and the work is part-time.

Is this the way you hire teachers? This does not sound like a very professional way to hire a person that will be working with youngsters.

It DOES sound bogus|





vicshere says:

ad she/he said and she/he said they dont use different usernames...yea right

listo





AnaM says:

Come on guys! What´s up? This is a genuine, and good, opportunity. Did I miss something?





CaritadeAngel says:

Yes, you did miss something.
Experienced teachers have seen a lot of life.

In particular, they've all seen

(1) The magic disappearing contract
(2) The magic disappearing salary
(3) The sleazy sex-pest boss (the case of all the women and some of the men).
(4) The magic disappearing-reappearing employment visa


etc etc

They need more information, for example, who are you, what's the pay, the class sizes, the textbooks, holidays, insurance, and what kind of person you are looking for?

A company website and an email address that goes with it also lends credibility, and you should also post your Cert. of Registration with the Camera de Comercio. Do this, and you may get a more favourable response.

In the world of ESL teaching, there are some extremely unscrupulous employers out there. Your post is very short on detail, and it makes it difficult for teachers to take you seriously. Even if you do get a response you should be prepared for a lot of questions.


Cheers

FAKE;BOGUS;FAKE;

 

beckloud comments on Need English Teachers in Bogotá!

Beware of Individuals illegaly brokering English classes from a Hostal. They just set up a web page faking to be a legit institute, they can take off at any time taking your money and leaving you screwed up. I recommend to apply in a brick and mortar English Academy such as Berlitz, British Council,etc make sure that they have CAMARA DE COMERCIO !! or ask for CAMARA DE COMERCIO certificates.

beckloud comments on Colombia Peso Rally Will Turn Into Rout

Uribe is a Graduate from Harvard.?....ja,ja ja..Uribe hardly Ja,ja,ja,Uribe hardly speaks any Engligh....With the due respect, I would like to know more about Uribe`s "graduate studies in Harvard" may be he went there to try to learn some basic English,I wonder how Uribe with such a basic & garbled command of the English langauge was able to pass a TOEFL test and not to mention a GMAT test,and even less to attain an Academic Degree in Harvard. I think this claim is just cheap political propaganda.

Yo, no sabo is the right way Sapo is a frog,no sabo is the past tense of the infinitive verb saber( to know )of course some ignorant geniuses will probably try to invalidate it.Ie, Yo no sabo hacer eso = I do not know how to do it.
