Living in Spain will force you to learn a lot of new things just to get by, and give you daily exposure to the language. My wife and I lived out in the country and relied on carpooling with fellow teachers to get to our schools, which provided about 45 minutes every day of sharing a car with native Spanish speakers — the perfect captive audience! Aside from class time, most of our interactions in the school were in Spanish. I can’t guarantee that experience everywhere, but in our school, most of my colleagues weren’t jumping at the opportunity to practice their English, so I was able to practice Spanish with colleagues every day. Being able to speak Spanish with your colleagues every day is probably pretty common, but not universal. I have heard some auxiliares are expected to help teachers practice by using English all the time while they’re at school.
