Finding work teaching English in Spain

 

One of the biggest concerns you'll have when moving to a foreign country like Spain is trying to secure work. Well stop worrying and start packing, as TtMadrid's job support programme is second to none.

Unlike some TEFL academies that lose interest in you as soon as your money's in the bank, TtMadrid is committed to offering you complete "After TEFL" support. This includes helping you find all the work you desire and keeping your teaching schedule full.

For this reason, we have an excellent relationship with the top English language agencies in Madrid, all who recognize the quality of our course and prefer to hire our graduates. All our graduates are guaranteed job interviews and we also provide you with our premium CV service which connects you with over 230 agencies, schools and academies.

During your course, we spend time with you ensuring you have a teacher focused CV/resume. As we move into the last week of the course, we have a job workshop to explain the type of English teaching positions that are available to you and the systems we have in place to get your work initially and then our continued job support once you have finished. This is available for as long as you need it, 1 week, 1 year or the rest of your life.

In addition to this, we complete an interviewing skills workshop while you're on the Tt Madrid TEFL course to ensure you know how to sell yourself to the agencies. Many of these agencies will offer you classes on the spot, so as to secure a good teacher. All you have to do is choose the hours you want and the agencies you want to work for!

Putting together your teaching schedule is a little like putting together a jigsaw of the sky - its difficult to see which bits go where. You can come in and see us, phone us or email us and we will always be on hand to talk you through it and help you chose the right teaching jobs for you until you have your golden schedule.

But why take our word for it? This is what our Graduates have to say:

“Most of my friends thought I was crazy when I left a very good job in marketing to pursue my dream of living and working in another country.  My biggest concern about taking this step was whether I’d get work.  I spent hours worrying, but  knowing what I know now, I realise what a waste of time that was – thank you TtMadrid.” 
Paula (UK)

 

“I took a big risk leaving Australia; it’s a long trip, very expensive, and I was afraid that I might not be able to find work.  It seemed like a big leap at the time, but in retrospect the staff at TtMadrid made everything easy.  I now have more work than I can cope with … although I always find time to drop into Tt to have a cuppa with Tash and Tem.” 
Robin (Australia)
