I see a lot of jobs advertised for teaching English as a foreign language, but as a Spanish speaking qualified swimming teacher in a country with shed loads of swimming pools, is there much call for swimming teachers to teach ex-pat and Spanish children and adults???
We are moving over to Spain next year and need to know whether setting up my own swimming teaching business in the Torrevieja area is a viable option, or if there are any clubs already running. Is it in the Spanish curriculum? Do they teach it at school or is it privately taught? Are there council run pools or are the majority privately owned? Please help!!
My husband is a builder and has a few contacts over there already, and we have been told that (especially in the ex-pat areas) that there is still a great need for good, honest and reliable builders. Is that the case?
Our children (6 and 4) are in process of learning some Spainsh so they can settle into school easier. We want them to go into a Spanish school because we have been told that they will benefit from mixing with the Spanish kids and will pick up the language even quicker. Is that the case or would it be beneficial to put them into a private bi-lingual school?
As you can see, we have a lot of questions, so any advice on moving to and working/living in Spain would be much appreciated!

hi loopy lou.
I too am thinking about the same thing but not for at least a couple of years. I have a place in Los Altos. Do you know which qualifications if any are needed in Spain?
