A Guide to Teaching Abroad in Western Europe

Prepare to Teach Abroad

Set goals

Having goals for any part of the school year is important! Having goals for teaching abroad is somehow even more important! Take these as a starting point or pull inspiration from the ideas below.

  • Pick an academic skill or technique that you’d like to improve. Push yourself to take the extra time to hone, expand, or learn more about each.
  • Push yourself to try new things or grow personally outside of being a teacher. Do this one on a comfortable basis though if it’s your first time abroad or in a new place.
  • Connect with others! Students, other academics, locals, and more can help you grow as a person and an educator.

Understand the benefits

There are plenty of benefits to teaching abroad in Western Europe. Here are some of the top reasons.

  • Cultural and language immersion. If you’ve learned a language, or have admired one, and the people who speak it, this is a perfect opportunity to dive right into it. Make sure you have appropriate language skills to make it!
  • Diverse professional development. Having more experience within any field, but especially teaching makes you a stronger professional.
  • Personal growth. Although growing as an educator is always an important part of the career, growing personally is just as important. The only way to grow as a professional is by having unique experiences that challenge you at multiple levels and teaching abroad will do that.

Making My Move Abroad Magical!

November 07, 2025by: NaVonda Marshall - United StatesProgram: Teach English in Spain with RVF
10

RVF International has been amazing every step of the way! From the moment I started the process of moving to Spain, they’ve provided clear, detailed guidance through every stage — from the visa paperwork and document preparation to coordinating with Spain’s Ministry of Education for school placement. What really sets RVF apart is their continued support after you arrive in Spain. They don’t just drop you once you get here — they stay in touch, answer questions quickly, and genuinely care that you’re adjusting well. Whether it’s help with Spanish bureaucracy, housing, or day-to-day life, they’ve been there with prompt, friendly, and reliable help. Their communication is consistent, professional, and personal. You can tell the team truly understands what it’s like to move abroad and wants you to succeed. I’ve felt supported, informed, and confident throughout the entire process. If you’re thinking about teaching or living in Spain, I highly recommend RVF International — they make what could be a stressful process feel smooth, organized, and even exciting!
