Has anyone ever gone abroad to teach English?
Favorite Answer
I lived in Spain for nine months, and I got a pretty penny without needing formal training. I worked in an after-school program in Madrid teaching conversational English (I had three levels), and I also privately tutored at the house of one family. I found the first job by word-of-mouth and the other by advertising on a local-Spanish website.
In terms of housing, I assume you would have to save up some for the first month or two of rent before even heading to the country because money won´t come in right away. Also, not having a certificate means it will be more or less hard to find work if you don´t already have background experience in the language.
