Hey there!
That is great that you have decided to teach in Argentina, I've heard exciting things from there! I'm afraid I can't personally get in touch with employers for you however I can give you advice and ideas on where you can start.
After finishing your TEFL course, you will be given a list of 8000 recruiters, some of which will be situated in Argentina which will be useful to look into.
Alternatively, you could take a look on Chalkboard for people who are currently teaching in Argentina and ask them for help:

Another way would be to actually go over there and enquire face to face with employers. Perhaps by searching "teaching in Argentina" or "TEFL in Argentina" on google?
I hope this helps. Once again, sorry I can't be of any more help in that area however if you have any other questions, I'd be glad to help.
Hi, Going to Argentina or Thailand sounds lovely, I'm not fully sure yet where to go, thinking maybe Greece or Turkey, France or Spain,it will be next year, want to get the TEFL course finished first and then look for places. Good luck with your job search.Tess
Hi, how are you getting on with the course? I see your from Greece, I love Greece, so far Iv'e been to Athens, Corinth and some of the Cyclades islands my favourite being Thira.
Hi, sorry it has taken me so long to reply. I have just moved interstate. Have you looked into the necessity of being a native english speaker? Even if it is 'preferred' it doesn't mean that you shouldn't try it right?
I have so many places I would like to visit and hopefully teach, they include anywhere in South America, Turkey and Mexico. I guess I will see how I go after I finish the course.
Have you started a course? Where would you like to teach?
It may prove to be quite difficult to get a job Japan as they tend to go for native English speaking teachers however you might be able to look around other parts of Asia such as China and Indonesia where the TEFL jobs market isn't as competitive. The same would go for Argentina and the UAE. My best advice would be to speak directly to employers about whether or not they'd be interested in hiring you, if you did a TEFL course before you enrol.
I'll send you the link to Romina, she has successfully got a job abroad teaching English. It might help for you to speak to her.

Hey there, I've noticed you've looked in to a lot of groups from around the globe, that is great! Where are you interested in teaching? Have you started a TEFL course?
Haha, you're quite far away too :) I enrolled this weekend to do the 140 hour TEFL Course. I will try to do some of the online parts in the next few weeks before I have the classroom part in September. How about yourself?
Heya! I'm from Sydney, Australia. How about you? :)
