"We have made so many good friends, had countless new experiences and done things we didn't think we were able to do. Barcelona is incredible and the program gave us the confidence to embrace everything it has to offer."

I was nervous about doing the TEFL course. I had no teaching experience at all. But the way the tutors built us up gradually made it feel manageable. I passed and now I'm teaching here in Barcelona.

The accommodation was brilliant. Living with other students on the program meant I had instant friends from day one. Claire was incredibly helpful whenever any of us had a problem.

I took the Long Summer program between high school and college. My Spanish went from zero to being able to have real conversations in just 10 weeks. Genuinely one of the best decisions I've ever made.

I had heard Barcelona was amazing but nothing prepared me for actually living there. The cultural activities, flamenco, cooking, the day trips, made it feel like so much more than just a course.

The visa support team made the whole process stress free. I was worried about the paperwork but they guided me through every single step. The TIE appointment was sorted before I even arrived.

I arrived not knowing a single word of Spanish. By the end of the semester I had passed the SIELE exam. The teachers at Iberia Language Academy are fantastic, patient, encouraging and very effective.

The TEFL course was genuinely the most intense but rewarding thing I've ever done. Within a week I was teaching real students. The support from the tutors was exceptional throughout.

I was initially nervous about the TEFL course but the tutors are so experienced and supportive. I never felt like I was going to fail. I just felt like I was being pushed to be better every single day.
