Bariloche

On the shoreline of Lago Nahuel Huapi, Bariloche is a gorgeous and scenic city..

Using local hardwoods and unique stone construction, Bariloche is popular for its attractive alpine architecture. With a blend of summer and winter activities such as trout-fishing, hill-hiking, horse-riding, and skiing on the picturesque snow-capped peaks of López, Nireco and Cerros Catedral, this wonderful city in the Patagonia region welcomes tens of thousands of tourist every year.

Bariloche is considered as the ‘chocolate’ capital of Argentina owing to its overwhelming amount of fresh chocolate displays prevalent downtown. The only competitor to this fervour seems to be replicas of gnomes of all sizes and appearances hanging on store windows. Tourists can also enjoy a great BBQ over a glass of red wine while looking at the beautiful scenery.

You must visit Bariloche if you are teaching English in Argentina. An accredited TESOL certificate of at least 100 hours is required to teach in Argentina. Advanced TESOL certification such as TESL Canada, Trinity CertTESOL, or equivalent is highly recommended.

Barcelona is situated near Spain’s border with France. Famous for its night life, beautiful architecture, friendly people, and beautiful Mediterranean beaches, Barcelona is a great place to teach English.

Experience the wonderful architecture of Antoni Gaudi. Seven of his eccentric buildings have been named World Heritage sites. La Sagrada Familia has been under construction since 1882 and it might take another 30 to complete. Park Guell, originally an unsuccessful housing complex, delights tourists and artists who take the afternoon to walk through the gardens. Casa Mila, Casa Batilo, and Casa Vicents are some of the imposing family mansions that Gaudi built for the local aristocracy between 1880 and 1912.

If you love the game of football, you cannot miss a game of the Barcelona Club of football, which has won the European Champions league 3 times in the past 5 years. Superstars like Maradona, Ronaldinho, and Messi have worn the ‘bluegrana’ jersey.

Barcelona is a popular destination for British TESOL teachers because of the lifestyle, warm weather, and especially because a EU passport is required work legally in Spain. Most schools ask for an advanced TESOL certificate such as TESL Canada, Trinity CertTESOL, or CELTA.
