Spanish Teacher

Teach Spanish on a schedule that fits your life.

Work-Life Spanish is looking for warm, skilled Spanish teachers for online and in-person classes. You bring the teaching. We bring the curriculum, the students, and a team that has your back.

We accept applications year round. If you are a great teacher, we want to hear from you.

A teaching job that actually supports you.

Set your own schedule

Teach online from anywhere you are eligible to work, or in person at our Falls Church studio. You tell us your availability and we build around it.

We designed our own CEFR-aligned curriculum in house. You walk into class with materials and a plan, so your energy goes into teaching, not prep.

Our learners are committed adults and kids who show up to grow, not an app. You join a team of teachers who support each other and learn together.

We hire for values and train for skill. You get real onboarding, ongoing development, clear feedback, competitive pay, and bonuses for student retention.

• Teach communicative, student-led Spanish to adults and kids, one-on-one and in small groups, online or in person.
• Deliver our lesson plans and materials, and adapt them for private students based on their goals.
• Keep students supported between classes with clear follow-ups, and help them find their next step.
• Track attendance and keep your classes organized, on time, and welcoming.

• Native or near-native Spanish, fully bilingual in Spanish and English.
• A bachelor's degree or higher, with teaching experience with adults and/or children.
• Strong command of Spanish grammar and the communicative, student-led method.
• A real passion for the language and for Spanish and Latin American culture.
• Alignment with our mission and values. We hire for values first.

For in-person roles, you will need work authorization in the US and a clean background check. Curriculum development experience and teaching certificates are a plus.

Have these ready so your application is complete the first time.

The online form takes about ten minutes.
