 Experiences about bilingual courses

My experience in bilingual has been very fun with lots of good memories but

also stressful moments.

I have been very comfortable with my classmates since there are only few of us

in class and we are very happy with each other. 

The teachers have almost all been very kind and have tried to help you with

everything. (Ines Jimenez Ortega, 4º ESO)

I did not like my bilingual experience. Not everything was bad because there

were many good moments, but when we had to take an exam, everything was

more difficult because I didn't understand anything. I don't like the subjects in

English because it doesn't help me to know the history of Spain in English and

the math is not useful in English either. (Carolina Perez Toledo, 4º ESO)

My bilingual experience has been very interesting and has helped me a lot to

learn terms and phrases in English.

My teachers have been very good, like Anthony, Isabel and Alyssa. It is more

difficult, since the syllabuses were in English but we have learned a lot. And

nothing more, I don't regret having signed up for these 4 years. (Andres Morcillo

Pinar, 4º ESO)

I started bilingual in second grade, out of mere curiosity, at first it was quite

difficult for me to adapt to the subjects in english, the truth is that in the second

year of that I was very lucky with the teachers since they made the subjects

easier for us by giving some parts of the subject in Spanish, the only one that

was more difficult for me was physics and chemistry, later in the third year the

subjects were easy, I understood them without any problem, but there was a

teacher who was very strict and the exams were very difficult, and finally in the

fourth year it is becoming very easy for me (at the moment) I don't I recommend

that you become bilingual if you do not speak English well or moderately well

because it is going to be very difficult for you to understand the subjects, but if

you are good at it I recommend and if you have the opportunity to be bilingual,

that you become bilingual. (Natalia Navarro Cardos, 4º ESO)

My experience has been fantastic in bilingual. I started in first grade and I'm

probably in my last year. Like everything, sometimes I liked it more and other

times less, but it has helped me a lot to learn English. Of these four years, two

have given me a very good geography and history teacher but now he is gone.

Now there is a new teacher but I miss him. I have also taught mathematics,

plastics, geography, technology and physical education. I have also really liked

the teachers who know English who have come from abroad. I have learned a

lot with them. In short, it has been an unforgettable experience without taking

into account some details that I would have missed. (Hugo Saez Gordillo, 4º

ESO)

My experience in bilingual it was okay I learnt enough english. The subjects that

I had were history and geography, physics and chemistry, tecnology ,PE, Maths.

We did some projects, like a mockuol of an atomic model .....

We did a bilingual camp for 1 week with my class and we were with native

english people of Ireland and Australia...... This was my favourite trip.

I think that bilingual its very useful and Irecomend It a lot (Maria Cecilia

Rocabado Cespedes, 4ºESO)

My name is Raúl and I want to explain my experience in bilingual. I started the

bilingual at the 2nd of ESO, during that year I learned in Physics, Chemistry,

Technology and Physical education in English. We also went to a camp to learn

English. In third of ESO we studied subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Arts,

Physical Education and History in the English lenguage. In this year we learn in

inglish history, physical education ant mathematics. In this year I improve my

english and I meet english teachers fron countries that the english IS the oficial

lenguage. (Raul Garcia Lopez, 4º ESO)

This is my first course in bilingual, I decided to begin this year because I want to

have the B1, it will be so usefull in the future! It's not being so hard but I am bad

at maths and it is even harder in english. I'm good at english, but there is so

much I need to learn! (Ruben Perez Selles, 4ºA)

Hello, my name is Jesus and I am going to talk about my experience in my

experience in bilingual. I started bilingual in the first year of ESO, in that course

we taught geography and history, physical education and technology.

I really liked that course because it was my first course and I learned a loto f

english and made many fiends.

In second and third year I also learned a lot with teachers who are no longer at

this high school and iwould love for them to come back.

In second year we were taught physics and chemistry, technology, physical

education and english and in the tird year we taught art, physical education and

technology.

This is my last year in bilingual and I wish it wasn´´t because I like to learn

english. (Jesus Guirado Martinez, 4º ESO)

I have been in the bilingual program for more than three years, from the first

quarter of the first year to the second quarter of the fourth year. In general, it

has been quite pleasant, and the classes are very calm. Despite the fact that I

have learned a lot of English, the downside is that if your friends don't go to the

bilingual program, you may feel more isolated. It takes convincing to get them

to join. (Adrian Feliz Ferreras, 4th ESO)

I have been in the bilingual program since the third year of ESO. At first, it

seemed quite stressful, but you get used to the fact that most of the classes

and assignments are in English. This is my second year in the bilingual program,

and I plan to finish it. I recommend it to someone who is proficient in English

because you can achieve the B1 level in English. (Sergio Reolid Palacios, 4th

ESO)
