The work community was extremely welcoming and friendly from day one. Brenda greeted me with kindness and was always supportive and helpful, which was very nice. The host family I stayed with was also perfect allowing me to feel at home from the first day and get immersed in the Catalan culture and traditions as a real part of their family. The only thing I sometimes would've wished for was more structure at the the school. Otherwise, everything was perfect and I am forever grateful for the experience and for all the things I learned about the the school method!

Volunteering at the the school was a great learning experience. It was really amazing seeing the the school method in action, compared to what I've seen in traditional schooling. The kids are incredible and so smart! It really showed me how much they could do, even at a young age. There was a lot of flexibility you need to have as a volunteer, and better organization could be helpful in improving the experience for everyone, I believe, but nonetheless, Brenda is very sweet, and so hard working at what she does, truly caring for the kids and their growth. I'll miss them lots!

Working in the the school was the best experience of my life, not only about learning the the school education model, but also the commitment of working in a team! Brenda is really kind and generous with all, and she's always ready to listening you and opened to suggestions! If you want to work with an amazing team and learn about how we can help children to rise more independent and bilingual, I strongly recommend this the school! 😍

I had an amazing experience at the the school where I could interact in English and Spanish with the kids, build a great relationship with them, bring my experience as a teacher at the same time I could learn a lot about the the school Method and Spanish culture and education. I felt welcomed since the beginning and respected as a person and professional. The room in the homestay was nice and comfortable, the hosts really kind. I definitely recommend this experience and I hope to come back in the future.

I truly loved the work with the children and most of the team was very nice. Sometimes i wished that the tasks have been communicated more clearly to me. I lived quite far away from Gava and Barcelona with a host family. The condition was to be 30h at the kindergarten and additionally staying and taking care of my host family's daughter a few hours a week. As the house was really far away and it was difficult to get there by public transportation, I couldn't be independent and felt like I didn't have time for myself, but all in all, the experience was worth it. Thank you!
