How do I finance a trip through Latin America. Are there easy ways for english speakers to find work?

I am determined to travel throughout Latina America but need to find ways to work while traveling to finance the trip.

1. Why not be an ESL teacher? You can travel to lots of places and work as you go!
2. I suggest you to finance most of your trip from your savings in US $. You can work as English teacher in any Latin America country, but you are not going to get enough money to travel a lot.
3. Wherever you go, look up "(English) Language Schools" in the phonebook. You may not be allowed to work without a permit, but schools - always in need of native speakers - may/can/will find a way around it.
4. Financing...i don't know just put it on credit cards or take out a loan and send payments home monthly and have a family member pay it as the note comes due each month. As far as a job I don't know exactly what part of Latin America you are going to but while I was on vacation in Mexico I was offered a job at a Howard Johnson Hotel on the beach making $60.00 a day which is awesome pay because most people make $50.00- $100.00 a week even with a degree in mexico. Hope this helps. I didn't take the job I love my home too much here, but it was interesting.
