Hello, Rob,

As youve probably noticed from the discussion threads here (past and present) that this ESL forum tends to be rather Asia-centric. I doubt you will find many folks who can offer much advice or insight regarding questions and concerns about places like Bolivia, Peru, and Ecuador. (Perhaps Ill be pleasantly surprised and proven wrong in the coming days.)

I think your needs might be better served and your concerns addressed over at (oh geez, dare I say it???) Daves ESL Caf.

There they have more exclusive discussion forums for:

General Latin America:

Brazil:

Chile:

In order to add posts to the discussion, you will be required to open an account at Daves with a verifiable e-mail address. Once they confirm your information (the process can take 1-3 days), your account will be approved and activated.

Also, you might also do various searches on Google.com for schools/jobs in those countries.

Good luck to you!

Frank
