Teaching English In Spain

The increase in residential tourism as well as holiday tourism in Spain
in recent years has seen a rapid increase in the desire of the Spanish to learn to
speak English. This has resulted in the mushrooming of English language
schools, a steady demand for well trained teachers and many opportunities
for teaching English in Spain.

The English language has been influential around the world for
hundreds of years, but the growth in the last 10 years - thought to
be mainly due to the Internet and the globalisation of business
activity - has been spectacular.

This has meant more and better opportunities for English language
teaching in Spain and of course worldwide. At the same time
it has also meant greater attention to standards in language
teaching, and the need for more formal
processes for ensuring quality on behalf of students.The result of this
has been increased popularity in qualifying for a TEFL certificate
plus an increase in the standard of the course and its recognition in
the world of foreign language tuition.

It is now virtually impossible to get a job teaching English in Spain or anywhere
else in the world without the TEFL certificate.

The course aims to develop students knowledge of the workings
of the English language and equips them with the skills to impart
this knowledge in turn to their students. It is generally a one month
intensive course with great emphasis placed on practical experience
along with close tutor support.The course will give you all the
skills and confidence you will need to walk into a foreign classroom
with complete assurance.

Teaching English as a foreign language is a great way to see the world
and get paid. You experience the countries you work in at first hand rather
than as a tourist as you become totally immersed in the culture of the
country in a way that no tourist ever can be.
