    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I really enjoyed watching this and it's made me even more excited to start the process of applying to do this myself! It's so refreshing to see the much slowed down pace of life and the sense of community compared to US America. I love this for you and I'm so grateful that opportunities like this exist that also allow us to impact others positively

    Thanks for making this video.
    I have a few follow up questions. I know you are in the auxiliary program yet I'm hoping you know a little about NALCAP, as that is the program I am interested in, and they seem similiar. If not, please correct me.
    -The NALCAP website says that TAs work "16 hours" a week. Does this mean you get 3 day weekends?
    -Does your start and end time change very day?
    -Does this 16 hours include prep time or is that additional hours?
    -Do you have time to tutor for extra money?

      Hi! I applied through a Program called ConversaSpain (conversaspain.com/) but you can also apply straight through the Spanish Government website NALCAP, (www.educacionfpydeportes.gob.es/eeuu/convocatorias-programas/convocatorias-eeuu/nalcap.html). I hope this helps!
