 Top Spanish-speaking country for teaching English abroad, Spain. Even though the economy in Spain has been a little rocky recently, it is still an attractive destination for many people wanting to teach English in a Spanish-speaking country. Spain is actually one of the most popular places for English teachers in Europe, as it has so much to offer, including a long and interesting history, a vibrant culture, delicious food, and a variety of landscapes. The big cities like Madrid, Barcelona, and Seville, offer the most opportunities for qualified teachers. A TEFL certificate is almost always required and also gets you a higher salary. While European citizens will not need a work visa to work in Spain, teachers from outside the Europe often work on a tourist visa, which is technically not legal but still very common. Alternatively you can easily obtain a student visa if you enroll in a Spanish-language course. This visa allows you to work 20 teaching hours per week. American and Canadian teachers can also apply for the Cultural Ambassadors Program, where 2,500 North Americans every year are placed into elementary or secondary schools across the country to work as assistant-language teachers.
