I currently live in Iraq, and products from the West routinely appear for a short period of time and then disappear. Don Simon and Pascual were here for an all to short run last year. No one apart from my husband & I were familiar with their products but they quickly earned a diehard following among expats.

 If you´re interested in Madrid or Spain, you may wish to use the services of Lingobongo  - for a small fee they´ll send your c.,v. out to hundreds of schools. I used them a few years back & got a great job in Madrid. Yes, rents are high there but I was paid well and had as many hours as I wanted; in fact, I kept having to turn down hours.

If you´re going to teach in larger cities, try to teach business English - much better money. But like one of the posters said below, do your homework. Check, for example, Daves ESL Cafe´s Spain forum to see if the school you´re thinking of working for has a good or bad reputation.

 

Good luck!
