Since I was a child I dreamed of being a teacher... I placed my dolls and my teddy sitting in front of me, a piece of paper stuck on the wall worked as a blackboard and then, the lessons started...
Nowadays, I can say "I DID IT! I REACHED IT!" I am a Primary School English Teacher who never stops learning.
I have a Master's degree in Bilingual Education and Inmmersion, which let me know more about CLIL methodology and the most appropiated way to teach in a bilingual environment. I am always looking for new ways to teach! Learning can be a marvellous adventure :) :)
In 2015 I had the chance to travel to Austria with an Erasmus internship. This experience changed my life completely, by knowing people from different countries and various cultures. I discovered myself as I never did before. I learnt from the British and the Austrian educational curriculum thanks to my internship in the International Class (PH Salzburg) with Ms Pagitsch-McGee.
This experience opened my mind, giving me the sense of a bilingual education based on a multicultural environment and an active learning where pupils must be the main characters of the learning process. What is more, since education must be aware of the society's changes, ICT must take part in the educational process.
