Cómo los auxiliares de conversación en el centro transforman el aprendizaje del inglés
Hay una gran diferencia entre aprender un idioma… y convivir con él. Muchos alumnos pasan años estudiando inglés sin llegar a sentirse realmente cómodos hablándolo. Entienden la gramática, aprueban exámenes y memorizan vocabulario, pero cuando llega el momento de comunicarse, aparece la inseguridad. Por eso, cada vez más centros educativos están apostando por integrar auxiliares de conversación en el centro de forma continua. Y los efectos no se limitan a un solo curso escola

How does the school system work in Spain?
Before moving to Spain I honestly had no idea how different the school system was here compared to the UK. I remember hearing words like “ESO” and “Bachillerato” constantly and having absolutely no clue what anyone was talking about.

How to find housing in Spain (what actually helped me in Tenerife)
Finding a place to live in Spain sounds simple until you actually start looking. When I first moved to Tenerife I thought I’d just go online, pick somewhere nice and that would be it… not quite. Things move fast, people don’t always reply, and it can feel a bit chaotic at the beginning.

The Do’s and Don’ts of Life in Spain (From My Experience!)
In the UK, I was so used to having lunch around 12 and then a big dinner at about 6pm. Here, everything runs much later. I actually start my lunch break at 1pm, and I’ll watch all the kids in the comedor sit down to what feels like a full three course meal in the middle of the day.
