# Spanish/English Bilingual EFL Teacher | Remote Position

> The Really Great Teacher Company · Colombia (Remote) · Part-time · Posted 2026-05-11

**Workplace:** remote

## Description

**You're bilingual, qualified, and experienced — so why does it feel like the online teaching world was built for everyone except you?**

Most platforms want native English speakers. The ones that don't often overlook your Spanish fluency entirely, treating it as a footnote rather than the asset it actually is. You have a degree, a TEFL, years of teaching experience, and the rare ability to bridge two languages for students who genuinely need that bridge — and yet you're still hunting for a role that sees your full value.

That role exists. And it was built specifically for someone like you.

### Here Is Your Solution

We are looking for **bilingual EFL teachers** — Spanish first language speakers with C1/C2 English proficiency — to deliver high-quality English instruction to beginner students across group and private classes.

Your bilingualism isn't a nice-to-have here. It's the foundation of the role.
