Now that I have your interest, you must realize that this isn’t as phony as it sounds. Of course it’s more of a resultant effect of teaching English. However, more often than not, this really becomes the correct situation. If you are teaching English in Rio de Janeiro, you are quite likely to be paid by lovely women to come to their apartments or hotels and talk to them.

Sounds like a fantasy doesn’t it? Well, not necessarily. If you look at things from an economic point of view, Rio de Janeiro is expanding at a rapid pace and Brazil is becoming a bigger player on the world stage. As a result, Brazilians have become incredibly motivated to learn English so they can interact on the international markets. Fittingly, it just so happens that Brazilian women tend to be quite wonderful. So the fact is really that they will pay you to talk to them, literally. Though, if you are making a living teaching English you certainly can’t discriminate clients on this basis alone, unfortunately.

Almost certainly your clients will be focused in the south zone. Places like Copacabana and Ipanema. You will find yourself going to, apartments, hotels, flats, and rentals. Usually you need to make accommodations to your students agendas since they are likely business professionals, doctors, lawyers and such. Though, you need to keep in mind that you’re not here on a vacation or a holiday. You’re working!

You must stay aware of some of the traps to this. As you travel between the hotels and apartments of your engaging pupils, you must keep things in balance. Though, some students, it will be quite tempting to make accommodations for extracurricular activities it can become problematic if this is your sole source of income. Because likely, you will be dropping the student as a source of revenue and it will be necessary for you to seek out a different piece of real estate. So if you think you are going to indulge yourself, just make sure the financial sacrifice you could possibly make is going to be worth it.

Though the life in Rio de Janeiro can be complex, it will certainly be interesting. With a little bit of inspiration you can make things better. You can offer to have courses on the beaches such as Ipanema or Copacabana, luring your attractive pupils from their flats and rentals into a more “comfortable” environment. It’s just a thought.
