  Descripción

  Hola!
  This is Concha, an enthusiastic language trainer in love with languages, people, their cultures and the world. I decided to open my own language "place" in a small village near Zaragoza, about 10 years ago, looking forward to encouraging my students to keep on learning while enjoying their way to success in a rural environment. English at Concha's is not a school subject, but a way to become an open-minded citizen of the world.
  
  Being a loyal follower of the simple and natural things, I focus on enhancing the communicative skills, the way we get our native language, step by step, at our own learning pace. It's a little bit out of the box in this systematized society.
  My place is like a window open to a new world waiting to be explored, being English the ticket to get it. Workawayers are expected to help in this matter by showing us their culture, games, songs, food…
  We are living in a peaceful small community, and I've been teaching most of the kids, teens and young people for over 10 yerars, so I could say I am a little bit of all of them, students, parents, friends, who, so generously, have been trusting on my work.
  
  I do also teach Spanish online and host international students, mainly during the school holidays. Both Spanish and English students have the chance to interact from time to time, being myself the bridge between them. I love the experience, and that's why I want to start this new project. Understanding each other is the basis for a peaceful world, which can only be reached through education.
  That's is why I am looking for English native speakers with either some kids teaching experience or teaching qualifications, who are willing to "show their world" with an English mind to a wide range of students (3-year-old students are the youngest and some of their parents the oldest ones).
  So, if you share your interest in joining our English club, please, do not hesitate and dare to do whatever you feel you should do while you’re alive. Never’s too late. There’s no treasure alike :D

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Our village is located 25 km away from Zaragoza, one of the biggest cities in Spain, from which you can take the AVE (high speed train) and reach Madrid or Barcelona in less than 1h 30min.
  Leciñena village has got a lively social life which allows you to interact easily with the community. There are supermakets, a library, sports centre, bars and restaurants where the locals meet for a drink and a good chat. It's in the middle of Monegros, the alive desert of Europe, so you will be impressed by its astonishing landscape. If you enjoy sports there are lots of routes you can cycle or hike.
  There no foreigners here, so it is the best of the opportunities to improve your Spanish in a welcoming safe environment. It is not a must, though. We all speak English in my family!
  Professionally speaking, you will have the chance to learn a lot abour teaching different age groups under my support and supervision. That will boost you CV for sure!

  Ayuda

  Helpers are expected to help with mainly primary school students, practising English language and introducing new vocabulary and communicative structures by playing, singing, making handcrafts... This is our language lab, so we are open to new ideas and suggestions, which enhance our students' creativity and love for learning, as learning a language is a long term process.
  Proved experience working with young kids in any field is needed, as children in their early years have some unique characteristics that teachers should be aware of. It is their first approach to the language, so it must be engaging and safe.
  Groups comprise 6 to 8 students, so they are quite easy and enjoyable to work with.
  We are open 16.00 to 20.00, Monday to Thursday.
  Lesson will be prepared together in advanced and you don't have to worry about materials, games, flash cards... as there are plenty of them.
