Teaching English Online from Belize by Marinx

Hello all, I was just wondering if anyone is currently doing this? My ultimate goal is to get a couple of years irl experience in teaching ESL, and then growing that into teaching ESL online. I am just curious to hear anyone else's experience ...

Well thanks for the great ideas to help with stability. I appreciate it! I have learned that certain countries may be blacklisted for their internet stability, so that might put everything off. Getting to Belize is a multi step plan though, who ... Read More

Thanks for the idea! Skype sessions, according to what I have found, use around 1-3MB/minute; one report as high as 10MB/minute. Depending on the data plan and how many people are in the session this may be a cost effective way to ensure I'm ... Read More

Hello, I'm getting my tefl certification in the fall, and plan to be somewhere by September next year. I'm trying to do my due diligence, and find well recommended schools to work for or reportable agencies to connect with. I've ...

Yeah, running into those sorts of problems in a communist country must be the stuff of nightmares. Given these issues, a nice safe posting in a S Korean public school doesn't sound so bad after all! Read More

Yikes, two carriers at whatever the cost (I think I read something like $75 or $150 USD/mo) x 2... The hardware I would definately bring in. Disheartening, but thank you! I'm really just racking my brain trying to figure out what I could do ... Read More

Yes, I was meaning to teach online to students in countries outside Belize. I had wondered about connection speeds, etc in Belize as it will likely be done over Skype and with PowerPoint (from what I've read), so thanks for that insight as well. Read More

I apologize for the lack of clarity. I meant teaching English online from within Belize, but the intended students would be in China, S Korea, etc. Read More

Thanks for your reply, Matt. With the lack of information I'm finding I think your advice to be careful is spot on. It's still weird that there aren't °µÍø½ûÇøs posting all over about how awful (or good) teaching in Vietnam can be; they ... Read More

Hi, I'm Marin and I'm just starting to research what I need to get done in order to live in Belize; I am a Canadian. I'm not a wealthy Canadian, and will only have a small savings to bring with me. The plan (if it is possible) is to ... Read More
