Review

Teaching in Madrid with CIEE has been a wonderful experience so far. The program offers in-country support which is invaluable. There will be many challenges in your move abroad and they are there to help you with all of them - from filling out government forms to finding laptop friendly cafes! Support during the visa process was also helpful as the embassy I used was extremely delayed. Additionally, CIEE runs an in-country orientation which is a great way to get settled; you have a comfortable place to stay while you retrieve your transport card, tour apartment, and go to document appointments. The biggest plus of in-country orientation is that it is an opportunity to meet people and start your experience abroad with friendly faces who are facing the same challenges you are. While CIEE Spain does not provide housing, finding an available and affordable apartment is doable, though it can be difficult in Madrid.
