- What can the town/neighborhood offer a Language Assistant?.

Aguilar de la Frontera is a town in the province of Cordoba, Andalusia, in the region of the Southern countryside. It has about 13.400 inhabitants. It is about 50 kilometers from the capital, Córdoba, where you can enjoy pubs and restaurants, libraries, universities, cinemas, language exchange, council/district courses, sports clubs, hiking trails, nature, culture, gastronomy...

Córdoba is well connected with Seville, the capital of Andalusia, Málaga, by the Mediterranean sea and Granada, with one of the most famous landmarks in Spain. Cordoba, with only less than two hours away from the capital, Madrid, by train (AVE), offers a unique opportunity to travel and explore different parts of Spain.

Cordoba, which is 50km away from Aguilar de la Frontera has a university, so there are plenty of flats to share both near the city center and the historic center.

There are several groups of facebook devoted to accommodation for students, teachers and language assistants in Andalusia.

Aguilar also offers cheaper flats in case the auxiliar wants to stay in the town.

- It would be good to give the school community the opportunity to welcome the assistant into the family in convenient conditions for both the assistant and the family.

- Contact of teachers interested in sharing a flat.

As the school staff changes every year, we cannot assure it can be possible. There’s a noticeboard in the teachers lounge with some information related to flats for rent in Aguilar.



Contact with other Language Assistants

- It would be advisable to provide the contact of assistants who have previously been collaborating in the town/area: link to the Facebook group, Telegram/Whatsapp group..

There are several non official groups on Facebook and WhatsApp where you can share experiences and meet other assistants, not only in Andalusia, but in other regions of Spain.

Telegram Group: Auxiliares de conversación Andalusia.
