Review

Having wanted to move to Spain for the last 13 years and not getting around to it, I decided last September that it was time. However, Brexit has made it very hard. I looked around for job opportunities after completing my Level 5 TEFL Course online last Summer and stumbled across Canterbury English. I looked on their website in detail and saw the Madrid Lifestyle program, and then pinched myself thinking this was actually a possibility! I applied and shortly received an invitation for an interview with Richard. He was very enthusiastic throughout, and provided lots of detail about the program, what to expect, and the culture of living in Spain.

The visa process was hard, but Canterbury English provided really useful documentation on what to expect and what needed to be done. If you treat it like a project, it will go a lot smoother!

CE was constantly keeping in touch throughout the process and was there to answer any questions. I needed my enrolment letter changed within a day after waiting a couple of weeks for the Spain School to receive my original one, and they returned a new corrected one within the day so I could attend my visa appointment.

I moved here in January and my orientation day was very informative and helpful, with useful documentation to start life here in Madrid. What I like about it most is they provide daily Spanish classes and assist with you creating a CV and finding jobs by sending your CV to schools, but it's up to you to build your life here in Spain and make it your own! I think it's the best of both!

There are weekly excursions at the weekend which are fun to spend time with peers and meet others, as well as explore Madrid and surrounding areas.

I am so happy I made this move and I want to make the most of this amazing opportunity!
