What do graduates say?

"I have been doing the Developing Teacher Course with Spanish for six months and I have seen major progress in my English teaching skills and my Spanish. I have learned so much about lesson planning, gamification and how to create interactive lessons outside of the book. I have an excellent teacher, Luke, who always makes the lessons so participative and interactive. We even carry out the methods in class as the “students” so that we can see how the method is to be used and how effective it is. The lessons are so well taught and planned. My Spanish teachers are extremely attentive and we only communicate in Spanish which has helped me progress drastically."
Abigail FieldBarbados
"I’ve just started the Developing Teacher Course with Spanish, which is allowing me to further my teacher training, improve my Spanish and get a long-term student visa! Tim couldn’t have been more helpful with the complicated visa process—I couldn’t have done it without him. Justin has been so helpful with improving my CV!"
Sophie SandersUK
"Everything about the program, the staff, and the location shouts professionalism. With the smooth operation of the school given the amount of students, the constant flow of incoming teacher trainees, and the variety of courses offered, there really is little room for critique. Overall, I think I made the right choice choosing Oxford TEFL and will continue to recommend it to others. I would do it all again in a heartbeat."
Kevin McGillickUSA
"As an American, I knew that there would be numerous obstacles I would face when applying for a visa. The school was very attentive during this stressful time, and made the visa application process so easy”
Justin McCartyUSA
"Starting the Developing Teacher Course with Spanish has been the greatest decision in developing my teaching. I would not have been able to obtain my visa without the support of Tim"
Daisy TillottUK
"The major hurdle for a non-EU citizen is a lack of clear, coherent information about the steps to get a student visa, and being able to do things legally in Spain. The reason why I chose to study at Oxford TEFL was their professionalism, especially the clarity with what the process would be like for a non-EU citizen. In the end, it was great to have a knowledgeable person guiding me through the process"
Anthony GreeneUSA
"I have had an amazing time at Oxford TEFL and learned so much between the CELTA course, and the Developing Teacher Course with Spanish. Thank you for all of the help and support you have provided throughout these past couple months, and the rest of the tutors and other staff as well."

Why study with Oxford TEFL in Barcelona?

Teach in Barcelona

Over 20 years' experience

We have been training teachers since 1998 and have helped hundreds of non-EU citizens come to Barcelona to live and study legally.

We have almost a 100% success rate in obtaining long-term student visas for those coming from countries such as the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand!

Our modern school in the centre of the city is an ideal learning environment and our vibrant community of teachers and graduates will help you settle into life in Barcelona in no time.

We help you find a job

There is high demand for English teachers in Barcelona (and online), and many schools rely on us to help them fill teaching positions.

We have a database of around 100 schools in the city who are keen to be put in touch with our CELTA-qualified graduates and we are also able to recommend online companies.

During the CELTA course, you will also attend a dedicated careers session and receive personalised support from our Careers Advisor.

Please note: if you are on a long-term student visa, we cannot guarantee that you will be offered a job straight away with a school willing to apply for your work authorisation. But, we will offer you a lot of support, including advising your employer on how to do this.

TEFL CELTA

We offer two certifications

The Cambridge CELTA is the most recognised TEFL certification worldwide. This means you will already have a great head start and can continue to build on this certification to help you stand out.

Our Spanish classes, which are part of the Developing Teacher Course with Spanish, are accredited by the Instituto Cervantes which is the sole accreditation for institutions teaching Spanish as a foreign language.

We will also provide you with a certificate for this, which will prove to employers that you are serious about your development and have studied with a leading course provider.

Courses start every month

Originally from the Slovakia, Diana has has first-hand knowledge of every aspect of visa applications and common problems which may occur.
