ESC IN ALZIRA, SPAIN : September 2022 - May 2023

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

CIPFP Luis Suñer Sanchis is a public educational institution located in Alzira (Valencia), Spain. It has been a technical institute specialized in Higher Education and Secondary Vocational Training for more than 40 years. Alzira is a medium-size town (46.000 inhabitants) which has a very diverse industrial activity that includes fields such as food, agriculture processing, cars, dye, spinning, publishing, furniture, building materials, packaging, transport and logistics, etc. Nowadays our institution's staff consists of 70 teachers and we have nearly 700 students. We have experience of more than ten years in different Erasmus projects at different levels and, besides organizing our own projects, our school takes part in different Consortiums and Associations from countries in and out of the EU. We have also been hosting Volunteers from the European Solidarity Corps for the last five years, from different countries such as Turkey, Poland, Belgium or Greece. - The Higher Education degrees on which our students can enrol are the following: *Administration and Finance *Transport and Logistics *International Trading *Labour Risk Prevention *Electronics Maintenance *Renewable Energies -In the field of Vocational Training (secondary level) we offer the following two-year courses: *Administrative Assistance *Commercial Activities *Telecommunications *HVAC Installations *Electromechanics A portion of these studies is carried out by doing internships in companies for one or three months. Our plan is to give our students the opportunity to complete this part of their courses in a European country of their choice, therefore promoting the goal of building a European Education Area.

💼 What the programme involves

Our volunteer has two main tasks: 1. Hosting conversation sessions. You will run conversation sessions for both teachers and students. Currently, there are 3 weekly sessions for teachers and 3 weekly sessions for students. This involves preparing conversation topics and working with a group of students with a broad range of English language skills as well as trying to keep them motivated to practice and improve. 2. Coordinating our Erasmus programme. With the help of the Erasmus coordinator, you will perform some of the administrative tasks associated with helping our students go abroad for their traineeships. This involves some emails and the occasional phone call, contacting and chasing up companies, following up with students and making sure all the paperwork is done correctly and on time.

🏠 Accommodation on site

ABOUT IDEA: IDEA is the coordinating organisation for this project. They are part of the local council and handle all the practical and financial aspects of the project. Having coordinated projects for years, they are very friendly and know what they are doing. IDEA will provide you with accommodation as well as pocket money and an expenses allowance . The two combined currently come to just over 300 euros. As IDEA coordinates multiple projects (there are currently 15 ESC volunteers in Alzira), you will be sharing a flat with two to three other ESC volunteers.

🎒 Leisure activities

Our school is a vocational training centre: we offer a wide range of courses from administrative management to heating and air conditioning installation for students from the age of 16 and older. We give our volunteer the opportunity to enrol as a student and take one of our modules if they wish to do so. IDEA currently also provide the volunteers with bikes as well as access to municipal leisure facilities and Spanish classes (three hours a week).

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profil: VOLUNTEER PROFILE: As they will be teaching English, the volunteer must have a high level of English language proficiency (C1 or higher). Teaching experience is a plus but not required. More important is that the volunteer be motivated and flexible as well as determined in order to keep the conversation sessions running throughout the entirety of the school year and develop a positive relationship with students. An intermediate level of Spanish will aid the volunteer in integrating better into the community but is not essential.
Deadline: Application deadline: 23/06/2022
