THE BILINGUAL CLASSROOM

 LANGUAGE ASSISTANTS OR AUXILIARES DE CONVERSACIÓN

Every year we are assigned one or two language assistants or auxiliares de conversación that come to our schools to provide a Native speaker model of the English pronunciation. They are only assigned 12 hours of classes with our teachers of the bilingual program but their presence is quite obvious and we hope that their contribution help our students improve their oral skills. 

Our working atmosphere is great and we always hope that they feel comfortable and integrated in our teaching staff and in our school by extension.

This year we have been asked to fill in this Information Sheet for Language Assistant which is aimed at providing a basic information of our school and the town so that they can think better what school they will work in and the town where it is. Obviously beyond the information included there I encourage them to contact the school to ask for any information they might need to have. 

We all desire that they feel comfortable with us and they have some positive influence or impact in our school and students.
