What is your favorite travel memory?
During my honeymoon, I visited Australia and absolutely fell in love with the country. You can find huge parks surrounded by skyscrapers and enjoy food from different cultures.
After a few days exploring various cities, we ended up in Cairns, where the Great Barrier Reef is located. There, we took a boat and I did a scuba diving course so I could dive in and see something I might never get to experience again: coral, sharks, turtles, and a countless array of colors and sea creatures underwater. It was undoubtedly one of the best experiences of my life.
How have you changed/grown since working for your current company?
Over the years as a Spanish teacher, I’ve seen a lot of personal and professional growth. I’ve had the chance to teach students of all ages and each group has brought its own challenges and rewards, which has really helped me grow as an educator.
Each experience has taught me the importance of being adaptable and creating a supportive environment for my students.
Looking back, I can see how much I’ve changed as a teacher. I’ve become more empathetic, flexible, and innovative in my approach. I’m really grateful for all the opportunities I’ve had to grow in this field, and I’m excited to keep learning and evolving as a Spanish teacher.
What is the best story you've heard from a return student?
Many of our students become like family, and we keep in touch with them. Every time they return to Seville, they visit us to continue learning or just to say hello. I fondly remember a time when a student asked me to participate online in one of her classes at her school because she was then doing her internship as a Spanish teacher. This is what makes our work so special, as they take something meaningful with them for life.
If you could go on any program that your company offers, which one would you choose and why?
If I could choose any program my company offers, it would definitely be the immersion program in Spanish language and culture. It covers everything you need: learning the language and culture while attending classes, plus fun cultural activities outside the classroom and staying with host families. It’s truly a fantastic program.
What makes your company unique? When were you especially proud of your team?
Our company stands out because of how we treat our students. We’re not just a regular Spanish school; we really focus on understanding what each student wants and needs. I’m especially proud of how our team works together across different departments to make sure every experience is unique and personal.
What do you believe to be the biggest factor in being a successful company?
I believe the heart of a successful company lies in having a passionate team that truly loves what they do. When our team understands the journey our students take when coming to a new country, they can provide the support that helps them feel right at home. Plus, fostering a positive work environment boosts teamwork, and when employees are happy and enthusiastic, it creates an incredible experience for our students. Together, we can make a real difference!
