OUR LANGUAGE ASSISTANT EXPERIENCE

Sehar Dawar tells us her experience in the school and in our city Seville.

IES Cantillana

My name Sehar Dawar and I am from India. I have been a language assistant at IES Cantillana for two consecutive academic sessions now. My experience of working here has been incredible.

Everything always works very systematically here. The students are keen to learn English, they really look forward to the English classes and they are very well behaved.

All the teachers have always extended their hand in helping me and have been welcoming. They have supported me greatly in planning classes as well as during the classes.

EvenI had the opportunity to present my culture to the students and teachers through presentations and other activities.

I take the train to Cantillana as I live in Seville. The commute is super easy and comfortable. I was able to meet many more auxes in Seville from around the world and this year with covid restrictions easing down we were able to travel and explore so much.

Seville is a perfect blend of everything, it is a perfect city for a thorough Spanish experience. The weather is great, the people are very kind and the food is very diverse. It is very easy to take flights and trains from here to practically everywhere.

This program has taught me so much and helped me evolve not just on my path of becoming a teacher but also as a person. I gained friendship and experience that I shall carry with me forever . So glad that I could be a part of this.
