Teach Chile
Would you like the opportunity to not only travel to a new country,
but experience the real life and the spirit of your chosen
destination? AIDE’s Teach programs are the perfect way to live like a
true member of the community and to fully integrate into a new
culture.
The Association for International Development and Exchange (AIDE)
provides international teach, work and volunteer placements. AIDE was
launched in August 2007 as the new not for profit sister organization
of Alliance Abroad Group (AAG), in order to expand upon the programs
historically offered by the AAG Outbound Department. As a not for
profit AIDE aims to reach a larger audience, and has more than 15
years of experience in offering programs abroad due to its affiliation
with the AAG Outbound Department. Our Goal is to create programs and
services for people that will create positive change in their
communities in the U.S. and abroad and will enhance their chances to
achieve international understanding.
The Chilean Ministry of Education and the United Nations Development
Program (UNDP) have designed a program to create new opportunities for
both Chilean students and teachers to practice English with native
English speakers. In this program you will work in the public school
system and be assigned to work with a Chilean English teacher.
Chile is a country of extremes, both in its nature and the work of
man. One can find anything from totally arid lunar landscapes to
densely forested areas, with ferns and waterfalls from the nearly
deserted southern ice fields to the crowded cities full of life,
first-rate shopping malls, international restaurants and five-star
hotels.
