Goodbye to Salvador Allende!

I can’t believe that my time at Salvador Allende is already over. I have learned so much and had lots of fun over the past school year, and I will dearly miss all of the teachers and students at this wonderful school!

 

Over the course of this year, I have been assisting the bilingual teachers in a variety of classes. It was so fun to be able to participate in lots of subjects, including English, Natural and Social Sciences, Music, and Physical Education. I learned so many great things from all of the teachers; not only information about all the topics we were studying in class, but also different teaching styles. It was also amazing to be able to contribute to the classes,preparing a range of activities including songs, videos, games, and worksheets in order to help the students with their written and spoken English.

 

Even though the Covid restrictions made teaching a bit more difficult, and I was only able to work with one year group at a time, it was still really nice to be able to work intensely with each year individually. I got to know all of the students very well and I had so much fun being in lots of classes with the same group. To all of the students: you are all so fantastic! I hope you had lots of fun learning English and feel inspired to keep practicing your language skills!

 

I am sad to be saying goodbye, but still am so happy for the time that I had with you all. I consider myself very lucky to have been placed at Salvador Allende, and I am so grateful for my time here! The school has such a positive and amazing environment, and everyone was super kind and welcoming. A big thank you to all of the bilingual teachers and especially to Gracia, who has been so thoughtful, caring, and helpful throughout my time here. This experience has been so positive largely in thanks to you. I have also really loved being in Málaga, it is such a fantastic city and I have made so many great memories here! Thank you for letting me be a part of your school and your amazing city, I will miss all of you so much!

 

Sending lots of love, I hope to see you all soon!
