We are seeking mature participants looking for the experience of teaching in Mexico.  This is not a vacation program but rather a formal employment program, therefore the focus is on teaching English in a position suited to your experience, rather than a particular location.  We ask you to choose a city size in which you would feel comfortable and we do our best to place you in such a location.  For instance, we would not assign you to Mexico City or Guadalajara if you requested a small city.  All of our placement locations are enjoyable and pleasant places to live and work.  Our destination reps based throughout Mexico will be the first to tell you how much they enjoy their towns and cities. 

Note: If you are a citizen of a country other than the USA or Canada and hold the appropriate credentials, we welcome your application but it is your responsibility to check entry requirements  for transiting the USA and/or entering Mexico.  Contact your local US and/or Mexcian embassy for up-to-date information on travel requirements. Your travel agent may not always have current information since Passport and Visa requirements are liable to change at short notice.

WHAT THE COST OF THE PROGRAM IS AND HOW TO APPLY

The regular program fee is $950.00 USD but at this time the special price is $599.00 USD.  A deposit of $300.00 USD is due at application time to be sent via Paypal system, and will be deducted from final invoice.  Please read the program terms and conditions before applying. If we can assist by invoicing you via Paypal please let us know.

Submit your application package listed below by email, or fax to the number listed.  Please note that without receipt of the $300.00 USD deposit, we cannot hold your application for more than 10 days.  In order to personalize your experience by giving you the individual attention you deserve we need to know that you are a serious applicant and are willing to make a commitment so please do not apply if you do not intend to follow through.  Your application package is necessary in order for us to assess your qualifications and credentials.  We cannot possibly know where we will place you until we can confirm that your experience will fit a specific school or job vacancy.
