Hello to all and welcome to another year at H & M! I mean...Hurtado de Mendoza ;) As most of you know, my name is Emily and I am the Bilingual English Assistant for this academic year. I'm very happy to be here and I want to thank you all for being so welcoming and friendly. I'm looking forward to working with each and every one of you, although unfortunately I am only here on Wednesdays and Thursdays. This is because I am working at Francisco Ayala on Mondays and Tuesdays.
A little bit about me: I'm 23 years old and from West Des Moines, Iowa (about 6 hours west of Chicago). I studied Spanish for four years in Iowa City at the University of Iowa and in May 2011 I graduated with a degree in Spanish and a desire to live in Spain. Thus, I applied for the Language Assistant program in Andalucia and last year I got placed to work in Uleila del Campo, Almería. Uleila is a small town of 1,000 people, north of Tabernas in the desert mountains. I lived in Almería capital, in El Zapillo and commuted every day. It was a good experience but I am happy to be back in Granada! I studied abroad in Granada three years ago in the fall of 2009 and studied Spanish at the Center for Modern Languages. I loved every minute of it and took full advantage of my short three month stay.
I am here to help you along your journey of learning English and to share as much knowledge with you as possible, so ask ask ask! Until the next post,
Emily
