Hello, this is Lucia Álvaros Álvarez and I'm here to talk to you about my course

2
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:27,179
Being a Bilingual Coordinator. What is my course going to be about? As you can see

3
00:00:27,179 --> 00:00:32,719
by its title it's about learning how to be a bilingual coordinator. So if you are

4
00:00:32,719 --> 00:00:37,880
a bilingual coordinator or you're thinking about becoming one, whether it's

5
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:42,259
going to be in the future or next school year, this is a course just made for you.

6
00:00:42,259 --> 00:00:46,340
What are we going to be looking at in this course? We're going to have five

7
00:00:46,340 --> 00:00:51,320
different sessions which is going to be the first five days in July. The first

8
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:55,460
day we're basically going to be interacting and finding out what are the

9
00:00:55,460 --> 00:01:01,119
main issues in terms of managing a bilingual program in our schools. On our

10
00:01:01,119 --> 00:01:04,640
second day we're going to be talking about foreign language assistance.

11
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:11,379
That's a lot to talk about there, and I'm sure we can all help each other by listening to each other's experiences.

12
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:21,659
On our third day, we're going to be talking about how to motivate our students, our colleagues, our staff, and mostly our families in school.

13
00:01:22,079 --> 00:01:29,500
On our fourth session, we're going to see how to help students, basically, who are kind of struggling with the bilingual subjects.

14
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,239
So how to help students with various abilities and needs.

15
00:01:33,239 --> 00:01:39,719
Finally, session number five, the fifth and last session, will be about how to create

16
00:01:39,719 --> 00:01:44,000
an action plan to help our bilingual schools improve.

17
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,700
This is everything, so I hope to see you in July.

18
00:01:47,700 --> 00:01:48,700
Thank you very much.

19
00:01:48,700 --> 00:01:49,200
Bye bye.
