Subscribe for TEFL value and info, ESPECIALLY if you like the idea of Spain :)

Very informative. Ray here n just subscribed. Hey I was wondering if you had some recommendations as far as which school to go to in order to get your TEFL? I believe in one of the comments you even mentioned to another subscriber about a site where you can get it for free but wondering if that would be a smart move. Thanks in advance 🙏

[@aleynamutlu1111]

can you suggest some academies to work for in valencia and barcelona pleaseee

[@TheChat-Room]

If you plan to rely on your job as a teacher in an academy with no other income stream, you will certainly have a better lifestyle outside of Madrid and Barcelona. The salaries are low, the lifestyle is higher and most of the academies there tend to offer part-time jobs, rarely 9 - 5s.

[@LewisGreenaway]

Agreed!! Unfortunately, the allure of the big two is too much for some of us 😂

[@Premium_expression]

Do you need a degree, also do you have the link to get started?

[@MR-dp9vx]

I am seriously looking into Spain after I acquire 10:18 my citizenship by de decendant, but definitely will need to bring my American salary with me 😅. That’s a huge chunk to get used to…

[@LewisGreenaway]

Absolutely, depends on lifestyle...but I found the outdoor lifestyle, because of the weather, made cheap or free things really fun. Subscribe, I'll be dropping A LOT of specific Spain videos :)

[@MillennialsWithMoney]

Very interesting! Did you do any private tutoring within your side projects? This can be a nice option for people looking to supplement their income a little without taking away too much from being able to enjoy the lifestyle

[@LewisGreenaway]

I only took up 1-1s with my academy, so less lucrative, but no Spanish tax headache 🤕

[@Botman_Rubthem]

Well, I’m sold! Do you have any connections that could help me out?

[@LewisGreenaway]

Start by getting some decent items on your teaching CV. Voluntary positions etc, I'll have to do a video on this.

[@plainvanillaguy]

At 13 an hour were you considered a freelancer or employee? Did you have to travel or were classes held in the academy?

[@LewisGreenaway]

Employee. One academy, all my classes were at the academy itself.

[@plainvanillaguy]

When did you start teaching?

[@LewisGreenaway]

Somewhere in 2017.

[@stuckinchaselandia6427]

Is it all young people or do retirees teach as well?

[@LewisGreenaway]

I met a fair few 60+ TEFL teachers working between 12-16 hours a week. A nice option.

[@stuckinchaselandia6427]

@@LewisGreenaway excellent. Thank you!

[@vaayumusic]

How can I get these jobs .. I am coming to madrid next month.

[@LewisGreenaway]

Build a CV, talk a good game, locate as many academies as possible via google maps (the smaller the better), look the part, walk in and introduce yourself as someone looking for work. I would do a course first though or get some experience. No degree? Get a CELTA. Degree? Get an online TEFL. Not advice, do your own research!
