Frequently Asked Questions

Salaries for an entry-level teacher in Spain range from $350 to $1,800. However, various degrees are available, and you may earn more or less depending on your area of specialization.

Madrid, Barcelona, and Seville are the top destinations if you plan to teach abroad and experience Spanish culture, architecture, historic arts, and music. Wherever you go, you’ll find that every city in Spain has something new and more to discover.

If you have a Bachelor's Degree in English or education, you may be able to teach young adults and older Spaniards in universities. If you don't have one, there's a good chance you'll be teaching young children in elementary schools.

Most jobs require upper-intermediate to advanced Spanish skills, especially when teaching first-time English students. There are some teaching assistant positions where a basic understanding of Spanish is helpful, but not necessary.

To teach English in Spain, you need to obtain an accredited TEFL certification, secure a visa, and have at least basic to intermediate Spanish language skills.

My Year In Andalucia

June 03, 2025by: Kelsey Peavyhouse - United StatesProgram: Teach English in Spain with RVF
10

I joined RVF International in 2023, and was placed in Almeria. Unfortunately, due to a family emergency, I had to postpone my start date to the following year. RVF was very supportive during this time and placed me in Seville, where I have had the greatest experience, and signed on for a second year. Andalucia has a policy of only allowing language assistants to work in the province for one year, so RVF was kind enough to listen to my request and quickly place me as close to Seville as I can be, in Extremadura. I am looking forward to moving there and settling into my second year soon!
