Question

Roughy how much $$ US do grade school teachers in Guatemala earn? What type of degree do they need?

Answer 1

Depends on what school is hiring you. I studied in an american school in Guatemala city and the american teachers earned around $1500 plus rent. In these schools they ask for some experience teaching. The classes that are done in english are English, Literature, Social Studies, Math, Science, Chemistry, Biology.

From personal experience, teachers had a great time living in Guatemala. Although 1500 dollars seem very low to US standards, its a lot of money for guatemalan standards, so you can live very comfortable here.

Post the school that has offered  you a job and i can investigate it for you.

Answer 2

I think the major qualification for a teaching job there is a pulse.

Answer 3

Not much... even in a "big private school" you made less money than a Police Man or  a Fire man.

Answer 4

converted to american about $150
