Post & Hire
Fields of Expertise: ESL/EFL, Elementary, ESL to Children, FIELDS MISSING
Salary: Negotiable
Details: WHAT DOES A TYPICAL WORK WEEK LOOK LIKE?
Teachers arrive at school around 7:00 a.m. and leave around 3:00 p.m. It is normal to spend at least a portion of each week doing lesson preparation outside of school, as teaching is a truly-demanding (yet gratifying) job.
ISN’T IT DANGEROUS TO LIVE IN HONDURAS?
Gracias is actually considered by many to be the safest town in all of Honduras. The homicide statistics that people read about exist primarily because of gang-to-gang violence in the bigger cities like San Pedro Sula.
HOW MUCH IS THE MONTHLY SALARY FOR INTERNATIONAL TEACHERS?
Pay is dependent upon education/experience and will be discussed during the application process. Nevertheless, every teacher is paid more than enough to cover his or her daily expenses.
WHEN DOES THE SCHOOL YEAR START AND END?
Teachers generally start working the first week of August and finish the third week of June. We also hire several ESL teachers each year to teach from January–July for a program called “Nivelación”, which exists to raise the English level of new students.
WHAT IS THE LIVING SITUATION LIKE FOR TEACHERS AT MINERVA?
Teachers are welcome to live wherever they choose, but free housing is available at “SAHER”, a beautiful apartment building/hotel owned by Minerva, which finished construction in 2016.
WHAT IS THE RATIO OF HONDURAN TEACHERS TO INTERNATIONAL TEACHERS?
It varies from one year to the next, but the ratio of Honduran teachers to international teachers is about 3:1 during the typical school year, with a combined total of about 30 staff members.
DO I HAVE TO KNOW SPANISH TO WORK AT MINERVA AND LIVE IN GRACIAS?
Most international teachers cannot speak Spanish when they arrive, and they quickly learn to get around just fine. However, if you do speak Spanish already, your adjustment to Honduras will be even easier!
WHAT ARE THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS TO TEACH AT MINERVA?
Teachers must have either a bachelor’s degree or a TEFL/TESOL certification; applicants with alternate professional experience that demonstrates appropriate competency will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
