Most students who give up on a language do not give up in class. They give up in week five, quietly, when nobody notices that they have stopped improving.

A language coach is the person who notices. You would look after your own group of students across their whole time with us, know exactly where each of them is stuck, and do something about it.

What you would actually do
- Hold a portfolio of students and stay in regular contact with each of them.
- Set concrete goals with every student and review them honestly at fixed points.
- Spot the ones who are drifting before they disappear, and intervene.
- Teach classes at beginner to intermediate levels.
- Feed what you learn back to the teaching team - if six students are all stuck on the subjunctive, that is a curriculum problem, not six personal ones.
- Help students choose what to do next when their course ends.

What we are looking for
- Near-native command of the language you would coach in - Spanish or English - with the grammatical knowledge to explain why, not just what.
- A degree in languages, linguistics,



education or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- Some teaching experience, ideally at lower levels where progress is fastest and most fragile.
- The kind of person who follows up without being chased.
- The right to work in Spain or in Argentina, depending on the campus.

Where you would work

Our Málaga campus at Calle Reding 6, 29016 Málaga, or our Buenos Aires campus at Maipú 464, C1084 Buenos Aires.

About Vamos Academy

Vamos Academy is a Spanish and English language school with two campuses: one in Málaga, on Spain’s Costa del Sol, and one in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Students come to us from all over the world - some for a fortnight, some for a whole academic year, many through university exchange and Erasmus programmes.

We are a small enough school that you will know your students’ names and they will know yours. That is the point of us. It also means the person we hire has real influence
