CIEE Madrid

Do you know that there are more than 160 stores in Madrid that are older than 100 years-old? A group of students from Open Campus and Engineering and Society programs explored some of them during a walking tour organized by our staff.
How does it feel to try on a hand-made cloak? And to discover thousands of buttons? and to east pastries from recipees that have not changed since mid 19th century?

November 1st is upon us, and as in many other countries, in Spain we honour our dead ones that day. In Spain we call it Día de Todos los Santos and we celebrate by visiting the cemeteries and eating buñuelos de viento (wind doughnuts).
We have also recently started celebrating Mexican Día de Mu***os and Halloween: you are welcome to visit astounding Mexican altars, listen to mariachi songs, participate in a Catrina parade, move your skeleton in one of the many Halloween parties and be again fascinated by the energy and spirit of this city!

PS: CIEE Madrid is closed for Nov. 1st, only the ghost will be present at the center and we do not recommend meeting them.

September's latest CIEE Teach in Spain participants just arrived! And this is how our Program Leaders welcome each of them at Madrid's airport.

Living and working abroad as an English teacher is a life-changing experience that will enhance their career and open their minds to different ways of learning a language and understanding the world.

Also, it is very fun! They meet many locals, engage with another culture and travel around while practicing their Spanish.

Follow to learn more about their upcoming experiences.
