Don't go there!!!

They have you working from 6am to 9pm Monday to Saturday and getting your schedule everyday at 6pm for the following day. They don't count preparation time as working hours, even though they expect you to prepare your classes (even if you finished at 9pm on the other side of the city and want you to be in class at 6am the next day... Who needs more than 4-5 hours of sleep?!!). They don't value you as a teacher, or even as a person. You get so exhausted that you can't function properly. I've seen teachers crying in the teachers'lounge and then going to class, I've even cried myself a couple times when getting home, from exhaustion and frustration!

No one cares if your students are struggling to understand something, you always have the same amount of "points" to cover in every class.. So in the end all they want is for you to "deliver" classes, not to care about your students (who pay a lot of money for those classes).

And if you start telling them that you can't follow up and work properly in these conditions, they tell you that they'll improve things even though they have no intention to. It's been like that forever and even though they've said it many times, working conditions are not going to improve there!

It might seem like a good offer at first as they pay for the visa and flight, but believe me no foreign teacher stays there for long. You don't even get to see anything of Colombia as all you'll want to do on Sundays (your ONLY day off) is sleep!

But still, go to Colombia, it's a nice place, just find a different job (there are nice programs through the ministry of education)
