[quote=RIPKELLER,36531]Dear Paul,

I'm interested in hearing more about the teaching positions you know of.

My wife and I have been splitting our time between the US and Chile, and are now thinking about a stint in China. We have a two-year-old daughter (never too early to start a third language--and Chinese is certainly the compelling candidate).

I've taught at all levels (high school, a bit of primary, and occasional university courses). English is my first language, but I speak and write (books and TV scripts) in Spanish with native fluency as well. And pass as French, though I haven't spoken French much in recent years. My degree is in Romance Languages from Harvard.

Any advice or leads you have would be welcome. I currently make a good portion of my living as a writer, so conceivably some kind of writing or editing work in the expat community could be a possibility too.

Our main requirement is that the salary be enough for the three of us to live on in reasonable comfort wherever we are--ideally with less than a full-time commitment, for the sake of family life, and to permit me to keep my writing and translating career active.

I look forward to hearing from you when you have a moment. All the best in the meantime,

Rip Keller
