Introduction

The language assistant program between Mexico and the UK is a

working program, which lasts a year, to teach Spanish abroad. One

of the main objectives is to spread Mexican culture, and share

ideas and experiences with British teachers. You are applying for

this program and you are really interested and motivated to get

this opportunity. There is a sequence of several interviews to

finally know if you are accepted or not, but you need to get

prepared to do well during these interviews because there is a lot

of competence. One of the interviews is about how much do you

know about the country, its culture, its education, and why do you

want to be there for a year.
