Here is an entry from my other blog about the Pueblo Ingles program.
The main opportunity that I did come across, though, and thought more than worth mentioning was Pueblo Inglés. This experience has been discussed on more than one travel site, and I can see why! Native English speakers world-wide are recruited for a week of English speaking in sites throughout Spain. Spaniards pay to travel and reside at the site with the English speakers, and are only permitted to use English as well. All meals and accommodations are covered for the "anglos" or English speakers. All that is needed is the cost of a plane ticket. Here's a little blurb about the program (extracted from Transitions Abroad):
Pueblo Ingles
Volunteer to Teach English to Natives in Spain Pueblo Ingles has been described as an inspiring cultural adventure, an enriching personal journey, and a unique, human experience. Each week twenty Native English speakers are sponsored to stay in a beautiful, picturesque 4-star resort in Spain so they can converse with Spanish professionals who want to improve their English. Accommodation, food and wine are provided in exchange for your conversation. It's a unique and enjoyable experience and the best way to learn about Spain if you don't speak the local lingo.
