Are you looking for a hands-on, meaningful Erasmus+ internship in Madrid? Finding the right host organization (empresa de acogida) can be challenging. Many students end up in large corporations doing repetitive administrative work, with very little actual learning or cultural immersion.
At Jaleo Madrid, we do things differently. As a boutique Spanish language school located in the vibrant Barrio de Salamanca, we offer international students a unique, immersive, and real-world working experience in the heart of Spain’s capital.
A Real Success Story: Elena’s 4-Week Internship Experience
Recently, we had the pleasure of welcoming Elena, an Erasmus+ student from Italy, who joined our team for a 4-week internship program.
Because we are an agile and close-knit team, Elena didn’t spend her month making coffee or photocopying documents. From day one, she took on real responsibility across two core areas of our school:
1. Digital Marketing & Content Creation
-
Writing blog posts optimized for digital audiences.
-
Conducting market research and analyzing social media metrics.
-
Contributing fresh ideas to our digital presence.
2. Business Development & Administration
-
Building and organizing targeted outreach databases.
-
Researching potential global partners and international contacts.
-
Learning how an educational center operates behind the scenes.
In just four weeks, Elena became a key contributor to our day-to-day operations while experiencing exponential growth in both her professional confidence and her language skills.
3 Reasons Why Jaleo Madrid is the Ideal Host for Your Erasmus+ Placement
1. Real Work, Real Impact
Because we are a growing boutique language academy, our interns work directly alongside founders and key team members. You won’t be stuck with artificial exercises—you will manage real marketing campaigns, assist with administration, and help create strategies for students from all over the world.
2. The Ultimate Spanish Language Immersion
What better place to improve your Spanish than inside a Spanish school? Our entire team consists of professional ELE (Spanish as a Foreign Language) teachers.
This means you will be surrounded by language experts who love teaching, explaining cultural nuances, and supporting your learning process naturally every single day. Elena arrived with a foundation in Spanish and left four weeks later with a massive leap in fluency and vocabulary.
3. A Supportive, Multilingual Environment
Starting an internship abroad can be intimidating if your Spanish isn’t fluent yet. While a B1 level of Spanish or English is ideal to make the most of your tasks, you will never feel lost here.
Our team speaks English, French, and Italian, ensuring smooth communication and an encouraging, stress-free onboarding process from day one.
