About
At the Copey Learning Center, I am currently teaching 1st and 2nd grade. I assist teachers with other classes such as preschoolers, kindergarten, and high school aged children. I am teaching the 1st and 2nd graders basic English language such as the alphabet, colors, numbers, animals, family members, fruits/foods, prepositions, and more.
In addition to 1st and 2nd grade, the last two weeks of my service I get to teach two more classes. I get to teach the Colegio A class for a week which has teenagers. Then, the last week I'm here I get to teach Adultos B which is an adult class for learning English.
I am fortunate enough to have a host family who has made me three delicious meals every day. The people of Copey are very kind and welcoming. However, they only speak Spanish. As a Spanish minor, this has been a great opportunity for me to practice Spanish with the locals. I have learned so much through an immersive experience such as this.
