Here’s our Awesome Team

We are a sincere company dedicated and passionate about international travel and exchange. We started in late 2017 with a clear vision: make the international exchange and travel easier by creating the best teach-abroad and study-abroad programs possible. We wanted to bridge the gap between adventurers and their destinations abroad.

Right now, we offer the #1 Teach English Abroad Program in Spain and aim to offer similar programs in countries worldwide. Our program is different because our team is different. We get people. We know what they want and customize the program experience around what they need. Everyone on our team holds at least two passports or has residency in more than two countries around the world. It’s what we love!

Program Highlights

 I 100% recommend this program!

RVF International is a fantastic program! I'd been searching for way to teach English abroad and when I found this program, I knew it would be the best fit for me. The constant support and resources they provided for me before and during my time in Spain was so helpful, I couldn't have done this without the program. My first year was amazing and now I'm currently in my 2nd, for everyone wanting to teach in Spain, I 100% recommend this program!

You're in good company

When I first signed up with RVF, I couldn't believe that it was real because the experience just seemed too good to be true. However, after more research and after talking with the super helpful staff, I realized that the opportunity was absolutely amazing and I didn't want to miss it. RVF helped me with EVERYTHING, including the application, the visa process, and setting up once I arrived in Spain. Looking back, I don't think I could've done all of that on my own.

RVF has been very helpful with every step of the process! I chose Valencia city and Harrison found me a great school to teach at. I have really enjoyed working with the teachers and students at my school. It is also worth noting that I was originally planning to go to Spain and figure everything out on my own but it would have been a mess to deal with COVID-19, the language barrier, and the bureaucracy... So I am happy I chose RVF! Thank you Harrison and the rest of the RVF team for dealing with so much and being supportive.. 

They were extremely helpful and informative. Even though I was one of many they helped, their extremely prompt responses and helpful service still seemed individualized. They took every question I had seriously and responded very quickly. I definitely couldn’t have gone through the visa and application process without them. Even now that I’m in Spain they still are extremely helpful, ensuring I go through all the (perplexing) bureaucratic processes as smoothly as possible.

Where in Spain can I be placed?

School placements are completely operated and managed by the local regional Spanish governments. Placements are available at schools in Spain in the following Autonomous Communities (Spanish Regions): Madrid, The Basque Country, Valencia, The Canary Islands, Extremadura, Cantabria, Murcia, La Rioja, Castilla La Mancha, Galicia, Castilla y León, Andalucía, The Baleares Islands, Aragón, and Asturias.

Placements are not currently available in Cataluña (including Barcelona), Navarra, or Ceuta and Melilla.

It is likely program participants will receive a school assignment in one of their region placement preferences, although it cannot be guaranteed. Nor can placement in specific cities within the region, the size of the city, the number of schools or school type (Preschool, Elementary School, Middle School, High School) be guaranteed.

Although region-specific and city-specific requests are often accommodated, it is not something that can ever be guaranteed. 

We encourage everyone to approach the placement process with patience, and an open-mind. Spain is a uniquely beautiful country with so much to offer, in regions and cities both large and small.
