TEFL Madrid Academy

I chose TEFL Madrid because I didn’t just want a certificate. I wanted to actually teach in Spain and know what I was doing when I stepped into a classroom. Looking back, that was absolutely the right decision.

From the beginning, everything is focused on real teaching situations: lesson planning, classroom management, dealing with different student levels, and understanding how academies in Spain actually work. Nothing felt theoretical or outdated. You’re constantly encouraged to think like a real teacher, not just a student completing assignments.

Another huge plus was the job support. TEFL Madrid doesn’t treat job assistance as an “extra”, it’s built into the whole experience. They helped with CVs, interviews, and understanding what schools are really looking for. I felt guided, not rushed, and definitely not left on my own at the end.

The trainers are experienced, honest, and very approachable. You can tell they actually work in the TEFL world and care about setting people up properly, not selling unrealistic expectations.
