Here's the information posted on our Cuba information page

http://free-esl.com/teachers/cnotes/display.asp?fIndex=11



Finding Work

With the state of the economy, preference for jobs is given to Cubans so a foreigner will be well down in the pecking order. There's the possibility of working for nothing, but as there are quite a number of qualified Cuban English speakers competition for paid jobs is high.

One possibility is going to Cuba with a volunteer organisation who can arrange the job and placement. One possibly worth contacting is Grupo de Especialistas en Lenga Inglesa.

Conditions

Pay is poor by Western standards from about 20 to a maximum of 200 USD per month. This high figure is what local high earners are on so it's unlikely to be at that end of the scale and more likely to be about 30-40.

Schools vary. Some have computers and tape recorders but most in the state sector have much more limited resources. It's hot and sticky in the afternoon (no air conditioning).

Government

Be circumspect. And especially so if you have an agenda (promoting anything but the government line or spreading religion) as the chances are you'll be found out and deported.

However, Castro has expressed the desire for Cuba to become bilingual (English & Spanish) so there is a demand for trained teachers.

Hi Alexander

Please let me know any information you have on teaching English in Cuba...
I am teaching English in a high school and a language institute in Hungary, I completed a teaching course in Sheffield and got my diploma in 2002.

If it is necessary I would attend a CELTA course as well because I would very much like to have a permanent job in a small town or village in Cuba teaching English to children or/and adults.

Looking forward to your answer.

Thanks a lot
Miriam

I would be grateful to you if you would inform me about the opportunities of teaching English in the countryside in Cuba, I think of small towns or villages...

I am a qaulified English teacher who completed a 2-year course for teachers in Sheffeild (England), and awarded a diploma in 2002, and also attended a half-year on-line course in business correspondence at London School of Journalism in London, and got a certificate in 2003.

Should you need more any further information, I would be pleased to provide you with that.

I look forward to hearing from you at the below E-mail address:


Yours faithfully
