My experience at the the school was great. I learned a lot about kids what is important for them and what they need. I learned how I deal with children and how I can teach them to get better in all lot if things. The kids were lovely and I will miss them a lot. Also Brenda and the other teachers were super friendly and were very helpful. They always listened to me and I could ask them everything. The family I stayed with was really nice and welcomed me very warmly. Thank you all for the wonderful time and everything I could learn. I will miss you :)

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!

It was both a challenging and rewarding experience. I've learned a lot about early childhood education, it was eye opening for my professional career. I got very attached to the kids, they are so caring and smart! The staff was also welcoming and kind to me. I wish the the school were more organized and provided some guidance in the beginning, so volunteers don't feel lost and overwhelmed. Overall, I'm really grateful for the all growth I've gained and the people I've connected with. I'd recommend this experience specially for people who really care about children and education.

Thank you Brenda for being a generous, flexible, patient and beautiful person. It was interesting to observe and take part in how you manage your little big dream come true! Brenda is very kind as well as all the teachers and volunteers I had the pleasure to meet and work alongside with during my time assisting and supporting at the preschool. The only thing that could improve is the organisation and structure. Muchas gracias Brenda por todo, te mando un gran abrazo!

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!
