Hi thank you for sharing, I am a Moroccan teacher of English, I hold a bachelor degree in education, English teacher. I have the TEFL and the TESOL. I taught English in Morocco and Vietnam. Is there any hope to get hired from a Spanish company please ? ty in advance

[@ESLTeacher365]

Most programs are for native speakers, so you’ll either need to get a student visa and teach part-time in academies or find a school that is willing to sponsor your visa. It’s challenging to get EU working rights even for native speakers unfortunately.

How we can apply for science teacher in Spain

[@ESLTeacher365]

You can teach science in international schools if you are a certified teacher. You can go through agencies like Search Associates, TES, Schrole, etc. contracts are usually 2 years.

Hey there, thank you for providing such a wonderful information. I would like to ask if Indian teachers have any possibility to teach English abroad. Please tell me know ASAP. Thank you ❤

[@ESLTeacher365]

Yes 🙂 You can apply through the Auxiliares de Conversacion Program. There are some extra requirements for Indian teachers like taking the English exam IELTS and the Spanish exam DELE, but it’s possible. Just Google Auxiliares de Conversacion India for the details 🇮🇳

Hello miss I'm from Philippines I like to move and work in Spain what program that can give me sponsorship

[@GauLow399]

What if I want to teach in tertiary or college? What should I do? thank you

[@ESLTeacher365]

There’s not a lot of information available on how to do this, but my best guess is you would need a master’s or PhD, to go through the process to have it recognized in Spain and have EU working rights (or find a school willing to sponsor you)

[@MichaelLowery-g6l]

I have been watching your videos for quite some time now. I am currently looking to work in Spain. I am a native English speaker from the United States. While some might think this is a good thing, I have found there are some definite drawbacks, and was hoping you could shed some light. The first is that when it comes to being from the US, Canada, or England, I have found that it is not as simple to find a job as these are non-EU countries and unless a school or business can prove they cannot find someone already in country then they cannot support a visa or do not want to pay the cost. The second is age when it comes to the auxiliaries programs. The cutoff is 59 years of age. Unfortunately this takes me out of both of these. Can you recommend or do a video for those of us who are specifically challenged? I am currently looking at Franklin (based on your video) and I have a meeting with them, but I was wondering if you had any other suggestions.

[@ESLTeacher365]

Unless you have a US teaching certificate, you are unlikely to get a sponsored work visa. As for the age, the 60 limit is a visa restriction, it’s not actually related to the job. Age will be your biggest struggle, so I recommend looking at countries without age restrictions.

[@Aman_prettypolishes]

Hy do we need to have 7bands score in each module for celta exam..?or overall 7bands..

[@ESLTeacher365]

CELTA isn’t an exam and it doesn’t have bands. Are you thinking of IELTS?

[@Aman_prettypolishes]

@@ESLTeacher365 no my concern is that we have to pursue English test before entry of celta exam if it true do we need to have C1level of English

[@ESLTeacher365]

Yes, you will want to have a high level of English before doing a CELTA course.@@Aman_prettypolishes

[@adamachraf7683]

Thank you so much for your explanations. I have a small question: I am a Moroccan English professor with a PhD. Could I teach in Spain? Would the PhD open up opportunities for me?

[@ESLTeacher365]

Your biggest challenge will be getting EU working rights.

[@Kamal_thind88]

What are the requirements to teach the students in private schools??hope u reply ☺️

[@ESLTeacher365]

Some programs place you in private schools, so it depends on the program requirements. Otherwise you’ll either need to have EU working rights or be a certified teacher who qualifies for a sponsored work visa.

Hi I’m from south Africa and was looking into going to Spain to teach English and don’t have a degree, Am i able to go over with a TEFOL. I am also a type one diabetic and was wondering whats the health care like? Also a person of colour “black”

[@ESLTeacher365]

You can get a student visa to study Spanish at a Cervantes approved institution. Then you can apply to teaching jobs up to 30 hours per week. Look into insurance for your student visa like Swisscare. Unfortunately, you may experience discrimination in Spain. It depends on where you are teaching.

[@aphelion89]

Thanks for such an informative video! I am an American looking to teach in Spain, but I don't have a Bachelor's degree. Is it still possible to teach English in Spain with only a TEFL Level 5 certificate? I haven't seen any ways.

[@ESLTeacher365]

You would have to get a student visa to study at a Cervantes approved Spanish school and then can get working rights for up to 30 hours per week at language academies. You would have to pay for the visa and find your own job which makes this route more challenging.

[@aphelion89]

@@ESLTeacher365 Thank you so very much for the answer! I think I'll take that pathway so I can have a chance at living in Spain.

[@imdee9024]

Hi. I have a cheap online TEFL cert. Is that a problem?

[@ESLTeacher365]

It depends on how you want to teach in Spain. Some language assistant programs let you teach without one, but in other cases you’ll want a quality course.

[@imdee9024]

Thanks for your prompt response. @@ESLTeacher365

I am an ESL teacher from Egypt and I did the TESOL. I studied in England and I was an exchange teacher in U.S. what program do you recommend me to work as an esl teacher in Spain?

[@ESLTeacher365]

Unfortunately because of your passport, you are more limited. You can try BEDA or get a student visa with work permission.

[@Kamal_thind88]

No listen to me i am at spain now i want to teach students what i have to do ?

[@ESLTeacher365]

It will depend on which visa you have and if you have working rights.

[@Kamal_thind88]

Yhh working visa what i have to do?

[@ESLTeacher365]

@@Kamal_thind88 If you have EU working rights, then google English language academies and private schools in your city. You will most likely need to prove a C1 or C2 level of English if you are a non-native and will want to have a degree and TEFL certificate.

[@nathanrobertson830]

Did you find teaching in Spain to be lucrative? I'm hoping to teach somewhere where I'm able to pocket a little bit of money to contribute to some future travels.

[@ESLTeacher365]

Teaching in Europe in general you will break even since you don’t get benefits like housing, flight reimbursements, or bonuses like in Asia. That being said, if you do a language assistant program, you are only teaching 4 days a week sometimes which means you can teach privately to earn some savings. Also, the cost of living is going up but payment hasn’t increased.

Hi Jamie , I am a Tunisian national , aged 36 years old , substitute English teacher in middle schools . I would like to teach abroad in Spain , could you give me some tips . Thanks :)

[@ESLTeacher365]

Unfortunately you don’t qualify for language assistant programs. Your best option is to get a student visa with working rights and teach in academies up to 30 hours per week. You’ll need to take an official English exam like IELTS to prove your English level, have a quality TEFL certificate and get your student visa either a Cervantes approved institution.

[@Earthling300]

[@ESLTeacher365]

I recommend making sure your TESOL certificate is a high quality one with teaching practice. CELTA is preferred in Europe.@@Earthling300

English Teacher per month salary?

[@ESLTeacher365]

Depends on the program or school, how many hours you work, etc.

[@juanmorales5133]

America??? which country? panama,bolivia,US,argentina?????

[@ESLTeacher365]

Most programs hire native speakers so this would mean US citizens. There are a few programs that accept non-native speakers.

[@tincou7694]

Are there age restrictions for the program you did? What’s the visa process like?

[@ESLTeacher365]

60 is the limit for NALCAP. For the visa you need to use a letter you get from your school to request a student visa at your local embassy/consulate. Then you request a long-term student visa/residency card once you arrive in Spain.
