I plan to go to Manaus very soon, perhaps in the next 18 months. I have many friends there from a previous 2 year mission, and it would be really nice to be able to stay for several months this time. We have savings and know how to live frugally in Manaus, but we want something to do there to help sustain ourselves and interact with people. My wife and I are fluent in the language, and we have teaching experience. I am a teacher by profession. Does anybody have contacts or information on schools there that are seeking native English teachers?
