Job Details

We are seeking a native English-speaking professional to join our team as an instructor focused primarily on developing students’ productive language skills (speaking and writing). You will support our English language teachers by delivering engaging and practical lessons, primarily for adult learners, with occasional sessions for younger students.

A significant portion of your teaching will involve English for Specific Purposes (ESP), particularly in the fields of:

Tourism and hospitality
Technical and scientific English
Business English with a focus on export-related contexts

Ideal Candidate:

We are looking for a semi-retired professional who can bring a wealth of real-world experience to the classroom. Your previous professional background—whether in business, science, technology, tourism, or another relevant field—should allow you to enrich lessons with authentic insights and practical examples that add value to our learners’ experience.

Terms:

The role will begin with a trial period of limited online hours. Based on performance and mutual fit, you may then be invited to join us on-site at our institute in San Javier, Chile.

If you are a passionate communicator with a broad professional background and a genuine interest in helping learners improve their English fluency in real-world contexts, we would love to hear from you.

Additional Benefits

Benefits of Living and Working in San Javier:

A Unique Cultural Hub: San Javier is known as the Chilean capital of wine, a small yet economically thriving town with rich history and culture. It is a candidate for UNESCO World Heritage status.
Vibrant Lifestyle: Enjoy a lively social scene, including excellent local restaurants, wine bars, and a bustling nightlife.
Scenic Location: Just one hour from the coast and one hour from the Andes mountains, offering endless opportunities for outdoor activities and exploration.
Convenient Travel: Well-connected by public transport, making it easy to explore other regions of Chile, both north and south.
High-Quality, Affordable Living: Access to excellent local accommodation and a very reasonable cost of living, perfect for those who appreciate comfort without overspending.
Food and Wine Lover’s Paradise: Relish in the region’s outstanding local produce and world-class wines.

Requirements

Ideal Candidate:

Our perfect candidate is flexible and adaptable, ready to engage with a wide variety of work beyond the traditional scope of a language institute, including English-related projects connected to commerce and professional contexts.

While knowledge of Spanish is helpful, it is not essential. We are happy to provide Spanish lessons for those who wish to improve their language skills once in Chile.
