Robert Crosland's South American Odyssey



Robert Crosland, one of Tefl Lab London trainee teachers, recently returned from Cuenca in Ecuador after teaching there for a year. He wrote about his experience there and he has kindly let us publish it on the Tefl Lab London blog. Any trainee planning to travel and teach in South America should read this as it is a very accurate portrayal of just what life is like for a TEFL teacher in South America.

With a beautiful historical centre, a mild year round climate and welcoming people, there is no doubt that Cuenca is an excellent choice for aspiring English teachers. Even after spending one year in this city, I was still impressed by the magnificent colonial architecture as I walked through the city centre, and the proud residents who worked hard to keep their city streets spotless. I still believe that Cuenca is the most beautiful city I have seen in South America.
