Buenos Aires TEFLers??

So here I am!  I arrived in BA at 5 this morning (albeit after a 7 hour delayed flight). Over the next few days I'm going to explore the city before knuckling down to find work from Tuesday onwards! (alongside Spanish lessons and a place to live!) Lots to do!!  As I'm here in BA I was wondering if there are any others currently TEFLing in BA or are imminiently arriving in BA to TEFL...

Argentina, BA TEFLers

Hey, I'll be in BA for the last week in Febuarary - pretty sure I would have finished my course, not too much more to do. Effectively turning up in BA with me, myself and my suitcase...anybody else going to be in BA in Feb onwards? Any advice in finding work, accomodation etc would be really helpful. I know of a few accomodation websites but was hoping people could recommend a good area to live...

I think the English version of the site is easyroommate.com. Just put in your preferances, it has anything from entire apartments to renting a room which is obviously much cheaper. 


There are lots of others like 4rentargentina but again I can only find whole apartments which are expensive. If that's what you're looking for let me know cos I know quite a few. 


Don't worry you're not the only nervous one! I am excited though, but just a little worried that in January there won't be much jobs around. Good luck!!


Heya, yeah I was thinking the same thing about just staying in a hostel first. I guess I was a little daunted at the prospect of turning up and finding no job! I'm not too sure how to go about looking for work, like you say it's best to find that when you're out there. Have you come across any schools that would be a good place to start?


I think this is the best flat share site I've found: compartodepto.com. There are a lot of good flats for around 500 pesos a month. All the websites advertised on TEFL sites etc seem to rent our whole apartments, and are therefore much more expensive.


Cheers,


Lianna

Hi Nick, 


I came across your post about going to Argentina in Feb. Hopefully I'll be in BA by January as a TEFL teacher too. I just thought I'd ask if you had any luck finding accommodation or were planning on finding it while you're out there? i-to-i says it costs around 500 pesos a month for a room in a shared house, but so far all the websites I've come across are much more expensive than that. 


 


Cheers,


Lianna

Hi Nick!


How is your TEFL course going?


Argentina cultured indeed!


Sounds exciting!


Let me know if there's anything I can help you with :-)
