i was wondering if anyone knows if ecuadors a dangerous place? thinkin about teaching english any help?We Answered:
I went there on a missionary trip as a teenager, was there for two weeks and had a wonderful time! The people were friendly, we encountered no problems whatsoever. But.. this was in the late 90's, before the Bush Administration caused the world to begin regarding America in a much less favorable light. There are many places I would not be comfortable traveling nowadays, but I would have to say that Ecuador is probably still safe. I would go there again, if I could. Good luck, and enjoy! It's SO beautiful there!!!Naomi Said:

How easy is it for a foreigner to get a job teaching English in Ecuador.?We Answered:
It would be SO easy to get a job teaching English in Ecuador. My dad lives there and I've been there for the past three summers - I'm only 17 but I've taught English at summer camps every single summer. You just have to find out which schools need English teachers and apply. You should probably get yourself down to Ecuador to check it out...hang out in Cumbaya if you want to find a school in which you could teach English, they have SO many positions available there.Go here, this is really helpful:

Teaching english in Ecuador? any advice on the best citys?We Answered:
Food is cheap, everything else is generally expensive. If you're going for 6 months I would reccomend keeping 800-900 Euros free apart from hotel costs or whatever in order to purchase nescessities and stuff. If you're interested in night life and the like, Quito is where to go. I'd reccomend my home town, Cuenca but there is a very small section where the night life is at but the schools are better in Cuenca. (At "La Estatal", thats some seriously tough education, only the best students get in there). While not working, I'd reccomend you check out the museums, a futbol game, the clubs, and some of the other cities.Ian Said:
In Ecuador, is it cheaper to bring your own bike or buy one?We Answered:
I am an United States citizen whom has lived in Ecuador for over 5 years now. I'd would definately recommend against bringing a bicycle; but less for reasons of cost, and more of practicality.The roads in Quito are somewhat better than other parts of the country, but there are still many areas which leave much to be desired. Further, the traffic can be extremely unforgiven, and the fact that bikes of virtrually any type are quite rare, be they road bikes, mountain bikes, or hybrids.
Additionally, theft is common, and "bike-jackings" are not unknown.
If you considering bringing it for excursions, you'll find that you'll be able to rent them on the cheap. If you feel you must have one, there are places to buy them here; they probably won't be ultra-fancy, or even a name you've heard of, but they will get the job done, the prices will be somewhat more expensive that in the states (approximately 10-15%).
You'd be best advised to hold off until you've arrived in Quito and had a chance to evaluate the situation yourself.
