Teaching English in Chile???

Question

I'm wondering if anyone could send me a list of schools that are for English teachers in Santiago. My boyfriend and I will be there in October and we plan on staying for at least one year. I wanted to be prepared before I left, and perhaps send my resume out and then give it out again in person once I arrive. Please give me any info you have regarding any of this.

Thanks.

At the moment I am teaching English in Santiago privately. Its not hard to get started, as there is a great need for English teachers here. Companies, private students and institutes are all looking for teachers. Here are a few institutes that I looked into:

Wall Street Institute: www.wallstreetinstitute.com

Berlitz: www.berlitz.com

Sam Marsalli English Institute: www.sammarsalli.cl

I would also suggest checking out the listings on mercadolibre.com and the local newspapers, El Mercurio and La Tercera.

Incidentally, I just got back from the doctor's office and my doctor asked for my contact information so she could start taking classes with me. Thats how easy it is to find students lately!
