Good program if you get lucky

EOD is complicated, because if you get lucky and get a great school and housing situation--it's awesome. If you don't get lucky, it kind of sucks.

I did get lucky, so I've had a great experience. My school is welcoming and nice. Teaching is really difficult because schools in Chile have different behavior standards. The kids are really noisy and rude, but they can also be really sweet. Just be sure you know you're signing up to be a public/semi-public school teacher!

What's a drag is that you don't get to choose where you're placed. I got really lucky and I'm in a great location, but if you get placed somewhere you don't like, you're stuck. They try to place you based on what you request, but they often don't succeed.

If you're a very flexible person who's open to anything, this would be great for you! If not, try it, and you can always drop out and do something else. Chile's awesome, so you should take any excuse to come here.
