How to Apply for the North American Language & Culture Assistant Program
LAST UPDATED JANUARY 2014 The gig I got working in Spain for the 2012-2013 school year is through the Spanish Ministry of Education’s North American Language & Cultural Assistant program ( auxiliares de conversación in Spanish). Basically, as long as you’re a senior in college/a college graduate, a citizen of the U.S. or Canada, and a native speaker of English or French ( vive le Québec! ), you’re eligible to apply. You can read my review of the program here , but in this post I want to show you how to get from where you are right now to the example email below in which Spain announced my placement in Andalucía. The golden ticket to Spain!!!
