Teach English in Spain | Get paid while you travel and explore new cultures

I knew I wanted to apply to the Ministry aux program but I found the application process overwhelming. Plus, the Ministry only contacts you about acceptance and placement, leaving you to navigate all of the bureaucratic mess in the States and Spain on your own. The thought of that made me pretty nervous since it would be my first time living outside of the States. So finding RVF was a blessing for me. They were there with support and resources every step of the way making all the processes – background checks, visas, TIE, etc – a breeze!

It's a great program and I was able to visit some beautiful cities before the lockdowns because of COVID. I'm sure that this experience would be much more amazing if there wasn't COVID restrictions this year but I'm planning on doing another year and hopefully it will the full adventurous experience that it normally is. The one negative you should know about this job is that the pay is not high, so you won't be making much money. However, the costs of living and the food costs are pretty low so you can make some money and if you travel often you will probably come out even or maybe lose some depending on where you travel. So it is best to save some money before coming. There are many benefits however, such as having lots of time and days off to travel to so many cities and countries close by.

This was my first time traveling and living abroad. RVF International has been super helpful during the whole process, especially during such an uncertain and stressful time with the Coronavirus pandemic. They are very knowledgeable and supportive when you need them the most. I am so glad that I decided to participate in the North American Language and Cultural Assistants program with the Spanish Ministry of Education, and that I chose RVF International to support me. I've only been in Madrid for 3 months but I've enjoyed it immensely even with Covid restrictions...I'm very happy and have no regrets!

I came to Spain during a very hard time, during COVID-19 in the year 2020. It would have been impossible if I didn’t have the support of RVF. Helping not only with the government processing, but also with the emotional toll that moving abroad during such a time takes by being available for a call when I needed and providing mental health services made the transition very easy.

I will be leaving with new friends, experiences, and an open door to this country down the road if I so choose to take it.

I had the chance to work with Harrison from beginning to end during the complicated process of obtaining work and a visa. The process was daunting given the pandemic but I was given every bit of information needed so that I never felt I was on my own in this process. Harrison was also more than willing to answer any and every question I had which was helpful during the uncertainty of the pandemic.

What's nice about RVF too is that we have the chance to easily connect with other Auxiliares that signed up through RVF so even when you get to Spain you have plenty of other people to meet with so you're not alone in a new country! 10/10 experience!

I am so glad I went through RVF to do the auxiliares program in Spain. RVF makes the entire experience less stressful and easier on you. Especially with added uncertainty of Covid and travel shutting down, I was so relieved to have RVF behind me. The owner, Harrison, is very quick to respond via email and really knows his stuff. Paying RVF gets you help for not only the application process of the auxiliar program but also with all visa paperwork, help with housing search, setting up wifi or a cellphone, what to pack, and much more. Harrison helped me even to look into prescription medications and getting them in Spain. RVF goes above and beyond and are worth every penny.
Also I love being an auxiliar and I’ve already mentioned to Harrison about staying another year.
I 100% recommend being an aux and paying RVF to help you with all the complicated Spanish government and visa stuff.
Harrison also helped connect other auxiliares in the community together and I’ve had a lovely time meeting other Americans who are going through the same thing as me and also used RVF.

I think RVF is really well informed and they made the process of applying very easy. They were always available to answer questions and provided more information than what I expected. If you’re wanting to work and travel in Spain, RVF makes the process super easy!

I had worked abroad before but this was my first time going to Europe. I was always intimidated to apply because there are so many bureaucratic things I never understood in terms of the application process.

Honestly, it was thanks to RVF that I was able to come here and achieve one of my lifetime goals! Thank you!

When I first signed up, I had no idea what to expect. Covid had just set upon the world, and I was in the midst of looking for something life changing. Not the absolute best time to change up your life, but it’s been the best decision I’ve made so far as an adult. Rvf has helped make this not only the easiest transition, but has gone above and beyond their duties with helping me get here in Madrid. I had a few problems early on, and Harrison was always there every step of the way to help make sure I wasn’t unattended, and also helped me to feel comfortable through out the entire process. I am currently writing this in Spain, and not only had made lifelong new friends, but lifetime memories and it’s only been a month. I can’t wait to look forward to the next 8 months of my time here, regardless of covid. I’m having the time of my life!
