Costa Rica TEFL Jobs

Many people are looking for English teaching opportunities.

This is a list of international schools, volunteer centers, and language institutes in Costa Rica. Not all of them list open positions but you never know when one could open up. I bet an email, phone call, or in person visit could go a long way with some of these schools.

Some positions are paid, some are not. I have excluded certification course offerings and volunteer opportunities with high program costs.

Please leave a comment if you contact or already work for one of the organizations below. I would love to hear about your experiences.

Let me know if I missed any organizations and check back often as I update the list.
