Program Details

I'm a female English Instructor from Panama with a TESL certification fron Toronto, Canada. I'm looking for a *female* Native* English speaker to help me go out in the community to publizice, register and instruct English to Panamanian locals. The students will be low income (course will be also at low cost) from high school and university from the province of Coclé, Anton, Rio Hato city, and sorrundings (the Pacific coast and main resorts are nearby where tourism is developing. Students have done the classroom thing, but want a chance to practice their English conversation in a relaxed way, and maybe get a little help along the way. If you're up for a laid-back English-teaching gig while staying in a cozy Muslim family home, you're in the right place!
