Study & Work in Spanish Hotels

You will have a Spanish language immersion course at don Quijote before putting your new skills into practice on a paid work placement in a Hotel or Country House.

This programme is available to students from the USA, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Japan, along with EU member states and Iceland, Switzerland and Norway. Study in any of our schools in Spain for a minimum of 4 weeks, then put your new language skills to work in a hotel or country house in mainland Spain, or in the Spanish Canary or Balearic Islands. Accommodation and meals will be provided during your Spanish job placement and you will earn a small monthly allowance of between € 200 and € 400 to cover your expenses while you live in Spain and build your tourism resume.

Included in the price:

  • Intensive 20 + 5 Spanish course (4 weeks)
  • Work placement in a 3-5 star hotel or country house in Spain
  • Certification of completion
  • Full board shared accommodation in the Hotel or Country House for the duration of the work placement
  • Telephone support during the work placement for employer and employee

The price listed above is calculated for a 4-week course, the minimum required for participation in this program. Keep in mind that with the higher level of Spanish you would attain in a longer course, you would be more likely to secure a better position requiring contact with the public.
