TRICIA BARKLE LANGUAGE ASSISTANT AT ROSALIA DE CASTRO
FOR THE 2020-2021 SCHOOL YEARHello! My name is Tricia, I’m an English language assistant in CEBIP Rosalía de Castro in Majadahonda. I graduated with a Bachelor of Management Information Systems, and I have a Master in Public Service. I developed my passion for teaching while I was a Peace Corp volunteer in Azerbaijan, teaching primary children and adults.
At first, I was a little nervous about working with young kids, not being able to understand them, because I didn’t speak a word of Spanish. But when I arrived, I was welcomed by EVERYBODY and my worries vanished. The teachers are incredibly nice, inside and outside the classroom, they took the time and effort to guide me through every step of the way. The students were all so curious and eager to learn and practice their English. It is a joy and pleasure to be a language assistant at Rosalia de Castro. I look forward to everyday with the children, the other teachers and staff.
My country is the United States, Virginia but now I feel at home in Majadahonda and at Rosalia de Castro.
