Introduction
Im Helen Finnegan, LETS Academic Program Manager and your advisor for TtMadrids TEFL Program.
Moving to Spain is a big step but with support and planning, you will walk into our
school knowing it was the right decision and I will be here to guide you through
each and every step.
For non-European passport holders who wish to live in Spain for up to a year to
really experience the culture, travel around Europe and learn Spanish, you need a
visa that allows you to live and study here. The LETS Group has all the pieces of
the puzzle through our Teaching Training School (TtMadrid) and our Spanish School
(LAE Madrid) to ensure you have the experience of a life time, studying, teaching, travelling and exploring
Spain and the rest of Europe!

program
Your program includes 36 weeks of semi-intensive Spanish classes, with three cultural activities and
two confidence-building workshops per week.
What we offer:
Accommodation
There are various options for finding accommodation and we are always on hand to advise you. The
easiest option is for us to introduce you to an accommodation agency in Madrid. These guys will set you
up with somewhere for your first two months here, which means you arent tying yourself into anything
long term. If you love the place, at the end of the two months you can stay, and if you have fallen in love
with another area of Madrid or if you want to move in with your new friends, then you can do it hasslefree. Our grads find it very convenient!
We also have a Facebook page TtMadrid Housing Options where our grads post rooms available in
their apartments. This is a great way to move in with someone who can help you with your homework
and show you around town.
Finally, if you want to book yourself into a hostel and find your own place, we can recommend websites
and give advice on price and location.
Making friends!
Doing homework, grabbing lunch, going for caas (beers), having some wine, or just
having a great time everythings nicer with good company, isnt it? Because we know
how important it is to have people to rely on when starting a new life in a new country, we
make sure you have the network to make that happen. For that reason
Making friends is extremely easy in this program! We dont mean people you just
hang out with every now and again, but truly life-changing friendships that will dene
your time here. You will meet your classmates, graduates who are always around the
school and the locals, of course. Spanish people are friendly, open and accepting.
Facebook has become a very easy way for us to communicate with you both pre and post
course. We have groups for new students that can offer advice and support for the visa
process, accommodation options, teaching ideas and lots more. Email Helen and she will
add you to our groups so that you start chatting with people with the same interests as
you before you even arrive!
The friends you will make during your TEFL triathlon will probably become the ones who
will run alongside you during life, pick you up when you fall and celebrate when you
succeed.
