What was your favourite activity? Basketball. Because I like a lot of sports so I had a good time. Baloncesto por que me gustan mucho los deportes asi que lo pase bien un rato. The Spanish dinner as I have never tried anything like it before and found it really yummy. La cena espanola por que nunca he intentado nada parecido antes y me parecio divertido.

What have you learned? I have learned a lot about English language and English culture. He aprendido mucho sobre la lengua y la cultura inglesa. I have learned to feel confident when speaking Spanish and that Spanish life is very different compared to ours. He aprendido ha sentirme mejor hablando espanol y que la vida espanola es diferente a la nuestra.

What are the differences between the schools? Las clases inglesas estan organizadas de otra forma; tienen mas recreos, una hora menos y los alumnos se tienen que mover continuamente de clase. The English classes are organised another way; they have more breaks, one hour less in the school day and the students have to move continuously between each class.

How is the food and timetable organised? La comida es bastante diferente puesto que ellos comen en colegio y tienen una cantina para comer alli y nosotros comemos en nuestra casas, y el horario tiene algunas diferencias; sus clases duran 10 minutos mas, tienen un clase menos, tienen un recreo mas y no tienen descanso de 5 minutos entre clase y clase. The food is quite different because we eat in the school and there is a canteen we can eat in and the Spanish eat in there homes, and the timetable has some differences; their classes run 10 minuets more, and there is one lesson less, and we have on break more then us and there is no rest/break between each class.

Is the style of teaching different? Es bastante diferente; en espana la mayoria de los profesores simplemente llegan a clase y empiezan a hablar sin preguntar practicamente a lo alumnos y en Inglaterra la clase parece mas parcitipativa. It is quite different; in spain the majority of teachers move to the class rooms and start to speak without asking towards the students and in England the class are more practical than theory.
