Does anyone have a rough idea of what a full-time English instructor at the Colombo Americano in Medellin might earn? I´m an accomplished journalist, hold an undergrad degree from Northwestern University and am working on a M.A. at Harvard, but would like to spend a year with my mom´s family living and working in Medellin.
