The Project's Philosophy & Aim
The Department of Education of the Regional Government of Castile-Leon wants to enhance the English-learning process of pre-schoolers and early elementary school students, and they want to do it by bringing retired school teachers and volunteers to help as teaching assistants.
Who this is for: Retired Teachers and volunteers with teaching experience.
Student age groups: 3 to 8 years old.
Class size: 25 to 35 students
What you will be doing: You will be helping as teaching assistants. You will be there to make sure that the English language is alive and well in the classrooms. You will do your best to be a fun, valuable asset for the school and for the young students in their efforts to start at an early age to gain a minimum ability with the English language.
Program Duration: Maximum stay for the volunteer will be three months, as a longer stay would warrant a residence visa requiring a long, time-consuming process.
Pilot program: 13 April, 2009 (2 months)
Next program: 13 October - 11 December, 2009 (2 months)
