I am doing a work experience and spanish programme in El Puerto de Santa Maria and this is my mission statement stating what i will achieve whilst here in Spain.
My vision is to learn about the spanish culture and the spanish language better. I also want to get to know new people, like my host family here.
I am doing a work experience and spanish programme in El Puerto de Santa Maria and this is my mission statement stating what i will achieve whilst here in Spain.
I´m very happy to be here and very excited what will be expected of me in the next weeks. I have been always interested in a language exchange with Spanish host family therefore I hope that my Spanish will increase a lot over the time here. But not only that intention brought me here. To be alone with no family for the first time for such a long time can be terrifying at first because it demands independency, and responsibility but more over freedom. I pretty sure it will help me with my personal self-development and will prepare me for the rest of my life. I really like making new experiences, learning new thinks and general improvement. I´m looking forward to get to know the Spanish culture better as well as and the way of living here.

I could decide where I would like to go. I had the countries Spain and England to choose from. I chose Spain because I love the language and I learn it at school. Also, many people have said that the people in Spain are more open that the people in England. I´m 15 years old and I have the feeling that Spain is the right country. I have not let others influence me. I chose this for me.

Read MoreIn my four weeks doing the work and study programme , learning work skills and practising Spanish language, I will become confident in speaking Spanish and having accomplished a good job.
Read MoreAfter having completed this work experience and spanish programme, I will have learnt to be more responsible and independent as these are the key features for my self-development, reaching my full potential. I will have achieved this by working on my organisation skills, such as planning my projects – mural decorations of the school. This will help me in future to be able to manage my time better, organise it and thus being more responsible. My fellow staff, my director and most importantly myself will see me, Kajsa, as an organised, responsible and kind person with a positive attitude and mindset.
Read MoreDuring my two months working as Spark Secretary, I will challenge myself to become braver and more confident and will act in a way that will make me proud of myself when I return home. These are my personal “whys” which I will use to motivate and encourage myself throughout my time here.
This personal motivation will fuel my work and allow me to accomplish my professional objectives with passion and excitement, looking after students, keeping Spark clean and happy, and ensuring that all school trips here go smoothly.
I will take every opportunity to learn more about how to do my job well and will take initiative where I can.
I will find inspiration from my past successes and aim to improve on them in future, while accepting that I will make mistakes and that this isn’t a problem if I learn from them and don’t make excuses for myself.
I will be more confident every day.
At the end of my eight weeks here I want to be thought of as someone who was helpful and approachable, as a confident employee, as someone who could be relied on and took his responsibilities seriously, and a hard worker. In order to do that, I will push myself out of my comfort zone, take every opportunity I can, constantly ask myself what I can learn today to make me better at my job, work hard even when tired, and look after myself in my free time so that I can focus on my job when working.
