DescriptionInstituto Estelar is a bit different from other language institutes. We have built a community of teachers and staff who are committed to the Estelar lifestyle of teaching, learning, and integrating into the community. We have a school where we teach classes to both adults and kids. We sometimes host events and activities in the community. We volunteer as part of an organization called Club A that helps kids in an underserved neighborhood in our city.
As a group, we have a down-to-earth, traveler vibe, but we also have a strong work ethic and commitment to teaching the best classes ever. We take pride in our accomplishments as we see our students progress in their language learning, and we know that we are helping students gain new opportunities in life as they advance in English. We also enjoy seeing students learn and grow, both in and out of the classroom. We strive to find ways to positively impact our community and to be a force for developing personal potential.
We pay teachers weekly for hours worked and assist in getting short-term immigration permission and opening a local bank account. We provide a lot of support to new teachers, including training and ongoing support. There is a syllabus for every one of our 90 courses, as well as course books, audios, exams (already written), and former teacher plans to use as inspiration for creating your own. We have lots of teaching materials available at the institute and on our Google Drive. In an environment that fosters creativity, collaboration, and dedication to excellence, our teachers can hone their craft and become educational leaders.
We encourage a healthy work-life balance, and teachers work 18-24 hours per week teaching English, leading language activities for the community, and sometimes doing special projects. The workweek is Tuesday through Saturday, and everyone gets Sundays and Mondays off. Teachers often travel together to nearby beaches, waterfalls, and national parks. -
