Experience

  • American Language and Culture Assistant at CIEE
    Sep 2007 - Jun 2008 · 10 mos

    Worked in the secondary school I.E.S. Grupos Cánticos in Cordoba, Spain. CIEE has developed a Language and Culture Assistant Program in public bilingual schools. While living and working abroad, program participants have the opportunity to learn more about Spanish language and culture while providing Spanish students and teachers an opportunity to increase their knowledge of the English language and American culture through interaction with native speakers. Teaching assistants participate in English classes but also actively help with content classes taught in English such as social studies, physical education, and music. All assistants’ roles as native speakers and experts on the U.S. stimulate the students' interests and greatly improve their oral communication abilities. Program participants may work with entire classes at a time or with small groups of students to develop speaking, listening, reading, writing skills, and cultural understanding.
