|
|
hi
my daughter (22) is in madrid for a year or two and would consider working for an english language school as a receptionist part-time in the evenings. any ideas as to how she might go about seeking work. shes british and pretty good in spanish but wants to improve. she also has some work experience in uk. is there a list of institutes that she could start going thru
thnx for any advice and suggestions.
regards

She would certainly earn more working as a receptionist than as an English language teacher. Is that why she wants to work as a receptionist? |

really ? No, she has no plan to follow in her dad's footsteps. ive even advised her not to for several reasons which most of us in this gig r well aware of having been discussed on dave's since i can remember. she's taking a year out from her uni in uk/holland (accounting n finance) and wants to stay in spain for at least a year to get some work experience in spain (main reason for choosing spain is the climate and opps to improve her spanish).

Hate to state the obvious, but the yellow pages (Paginas Amarillas) has a website and all the address of academies etc.
Still not entirely sure what�s wrong with following in her fathers footsteps. |
