Learning at TEFL Iberia was amazing! I went into it knowing little to no Spanish and after 2 months I have learned so much. The teachers work at your pace and never make you feel pressured. They helped me with my confidence when it comes to speaking Spanish in public. If you’re looking for a language school TEFL Iberia is a great choice!

Frequently Asked Questions
view more faqsI am a complete beginner. Does the teacher speak my language?
Yes. Although our Spanish instructors conduct all courses in Spanish, they all speak some English and can assist with translations as needed. Due to our level system, you will be placed with other new learners.
Will I be able to process a student visa with this course?
Yes, the course satisfies the criteria for a long-term student visa. You must sign up to the full 12 months. 6 months is classed as a ‘short-term visa’ and you will not be allowed to work.
Can I work on a student visa?
If you apply for a long-term student visa (more than 6 months), yes, you can work through a “convenio de prácticas”, which is like an agreement between us (your school) and your employer that you will be paid work experience. We will provide you with all the necessary paperwork and give instructions to your employer on how to arrange it.
Will I still have time to work?
Yes, the classes are from 09.30-11.30, meaning you have all day and evening for working, which is when most English classes take place. The course is designed so you can conveniently manage your own time and the workload.
Do I need to speak Spanish to teach English in Spain?
No. English is the only language used in the classroom and we want to show you how you can teach without using a word of the foreign language. However, you will get a lot more from your experience if you take the time to learn some Spanish and engage with the local culture.
