HEADS UP!  We advise you to teach abroad with a PDF copy of your university diploma(s), but first "Apostille" your bachelor's degree diploma.  There is a global trend requiring the apostille stamp for the work VISA application process.  It's not a standard requirement yet, but it is a growing 'trend.'  Avoid problems abroad by taking care of this preventive measure before you leave home.  NOTE:  COLOMBIA requires it!

IMPORTANT:  These private schools clients are primarily seeking native-English speakers, but when a qualified foreign candidate is not found and they are running out of time, then they become open to Colombian and other non-native English speaking teachers with C1/C2 English.  Also, understand that teachers who are already inside Colombia will always be more attractive to schools.  All nationalities are welcome to apply!
