TESOL Jobs in Ecuador


Located in the north west of the South American continent, Ecuador straddles the Andes with low coastal areas on the west and rainforest in the Amazon Basin to the west. It is the smallest of the Andean nations and is bordered by Colombia to the north and Peru to the east and south. To the west is the mighty Pacific Ocean. The country is home to a rich and diverse ecology with thousands of species of plants and animals and is most notable for the Galápagos Islands where Charles Darwin first started to consider his theory of evolution.

The country’s capital is Quito which rests on the eastern slopes of an active volcano. Quito was one of the first cities in the world to be named a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site along with Kraków in Poland and has one of the largest and best preserved historic centers in South America. Outside of the capital are many other areas of interest to visitors including the Cotopaxi National Park and the city of Baños de Agua Santa. Known as the “Gateway to the Amazon” Baños de Agua Santa is a center for adventure sports such as bridge jumping, canyoning, kayaking and plenty more.
