š Ā”Bienvenido, IƱigo Morales!
We're beyond excited to extend a warm Raider welcome to IƱigo Morales, joining us all the way from Estella, Spain! This year, IƱigo will be teaching Spanish II and Spanish IV classes at BHS!
Through the Visiting International Teaching Program, IƱigo bridges continents to share the Spanish culture and language with us, while exploring the diversity of the American educational system. This program enriches both teachers and students by fostering cross-cultural understanding and educational exchange.
Last year, IƱigo was starting his 2nd year of teaching in Spain, but this year marks a whole new chapter as he begins his 3rd year here in Bloomington, Illinois. He's looking forward to learning new methodologies, adapting to the American educational system, and most importantly, sharing his Spanish culture and language, making a lasting impression on our students.
A little about IƱigo - when he's not teaching, you might find him playing chessā, hitting the gym, or reminiscing about his journeys walking El Camino de Santiago not once but four times!
Let's give IƱigo a hearty Raider welcome and make his year with us unforgettable! Here's to new learning adventures and cultural discoveries ahead!
