Business Profile

My name is Harriet, I am 24 years old from England and I graduated in the Summer of 2015 from Cardiff University. I always wanted to teach English abroad and I decided to come to Spain with Meddeas in order to improve my Spanish and learn about the beautiful Spanish culture. This experience has been amazing for me and I have loved every minute of it. I have been teaching English to primary and secondary school students in Larramendi Ikastola, a Basque school just outside of Bilbao. Not only have I been learning Spanish but some Basque too! Next year I will continue teaching English as a second language but I hope to do it somewhere different in order to experience another culture and a different way of life. This video shows my time here in the Basque Country, both at home with my host family, with friends that I have made here and in my classes at school. It also shows why I think that, if given the opportunity, everyone should give teaching English a go as it is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done.
