”this unique volunteer program has been an important part of my life”
Roy Barnes, Transitions Abroad, July 06

WHO ARE THE STUDENTS?

The Spanish participants are all intelligent professional people. There is always a mix of ages and genders, however the majority of those are in the region of 30-50 years old and come from all provinces in Spain: namely Madrid..

Most of the Spaniards will have been sent to Pueblo Ingles from their companies because they regularly speak English in their respective roles and positions. There are also many participants that pay for themselves to come to Pueblo Ingles hoping that their personal investment will pay handsome dividends in their career and/or personal ambitions. For whatever reason people attend Pueblo Ingles the Spaniards are certainly unified in their search for a completely English speaking environment, a unique environment of diversity, co-operation and communication, where native English speakers will be patient, friendly and committed to the Pueblo Ingles objectives. This brings us to another thing that all the Spanish participants seem to have in common. All of them will be grateful of your hard work and this will be evident in their warm and friendly approach despite the tiredness and mental overload that Pueblo Ingles is sure to inflict on them.

Read on to find out if you are up to the unique challenge, for which we are continually looking for engaging volunteers.
