Orientation in Valladolid: A Look Inside CIEE's Spain Volunteer program!
Authored By:
CIEE’s Orientation in Valladolid is one of the many benefits of the Teach in Spain Volunteer program! The best part? Airport pickup, transportation, hotel accommodation, and meals are all provided! Let’s walk through the two-day orientation:
Monday:
CIEE Teachers land at Madrid – Barajas airport and are met by the CIEE Madrid Team. The team and volunteers make their way to Valladolid and check in to the hotel later that evening. Once settled, they tour the city of Valladolid before going to the Welcome Dinner.
Tuesday:
Volunteers meet the team for breakfast at the hotel. Then, they go to the orientation site to meet the regional government from Castilla y Leon and begin their orientation sessions. They eat lunch and check out of the hotel as they prepare to leave to meet their host families and start teaching the next day.
