TEFL Courses & Certification in Spain
The land of tapas, flamenco, and siestas, Spain has a rich history deeply intertwined with the many cultures of its people. Spain’s different regions, Basque country, Catalonia, and Andalusia, might as well be their own countries; the distinct languages, food, and customs of each region make the chance to teach in Spain a dream for adventurers and explorers. Spain is one of the world’s most popular locations to earn a TEFL certification abroad, and there is a high demand for native English speakers who want to teach in Spain.

A Guide to Earning TEFL Certification in Spain
Locations
The most popular locations for TESOL programs in Spain are in the nation’s biggest cities: Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, and Sevilla. When choosing a certification program, it is important to make sure that it is an accredited TEFL program that entails at least 120 hours of courses as well as practice teaching. Before committing to a program, it’s important to speak with the program provider, learn more about the program, and assess the legitimacy of the classes, teaching style, and certification requirements. Most importantly, all TEFL certification programs should provide job-finding and networking assistance after completion of the program. TEFL programs in Spain that award Cambridge CELTA (Certificate in Language Teaching to Adults) certifications are the most widely recognized and accepted.
Madrid has the largest TEFL job market, and is a good place to take a certification course and search for jobs. Home to the famous Prado Museum, the Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor (Madrid’s famous main square), and thousands of bars, cafes, clubs, and restaurants, such as El Museo de Jamon (Museum of Ham), this lively city always has something going on.
Valencia, Barcelona, and Seville are located in three different regions of the country. Valencia is famous for its delicious paella (rice dish) and Las Fallas, a traditional festival held for Saint Joseph in which giant statues are burnt. Barcelona, a city full of beaches and Gaudi’s distinct architectural style (displayed through the cathedral La Sagrada Familia), actually speaks another language called Catalan. Seville has one of the most impressive cathedrals in Spain, world famous Flamenco shows, and widely growing bitter oranges used for jam and marmalade. Each of these cities has a large number of TESOL programs and TEFL jobs available.
