Well, I survived my first evening of teaching English to a group of Spanish students at a local private academy yesterday!Arrived in plenty of time (ok, ok, actually a whole hour earlier much to the bemusement of "la jefa") to prepare the room to my liking.  Spaced the chairs out in a horseshoe shape with millimeter precision and had my dry marker pens and props laid out military style on the table in front of...

I have to write a syllabus more or less myself, so that should buck my ideas up a bit haha. Overall the classes are going well thanks and it is getting easier by the week - my prep time is down to about 10% of what it took me when I first started so even the fiestas are getting a look in :)

Where you are there will be a heaving social scene and very cosmopolitan, compared to where I live in the sticks. I find living here very easy and very laid back. With beer, a euro a bottle in the local bars (and sometimes that can include a tapa), my complaints are minimal ;)

Let me know how you get on

Hey mate. How's teaching in Spain going? I will hopefully be there for September and just wanted some feedback as to how you think the classes are, how it is living over there etc?


Cheers


Ryan
