These schools have between 20 and 55 pupils whom are normally taught in just 1 or 2 classrooms.

Simply the presence of a volunteer will help alleviate the daily pressures. You will take charge of either a class or a group under the teachers guidance.
Requirements: Some basic Spanish language skills, a big bag of enthusiasm and miles of smiles.
