Hi Angel, where do you usually get the materials that the main teacher asks to make?

[@AngelCabanlong]

I make them from scratch if I can’t find good activities on the internet. But bamboozle, kahoot, wordwall, these are some references u could use

[@carlaangelica9471]

@@AngelCabanlong May I know how long are the LAs not paid in summer? Is it 3 or 4 months? And how did you survive w/o the monthly stipend?

Hi, Angel! I am aware that in between breaks are not paid. How about those times the you were allowed you to leave early since you had nothing more to do or that time when she gave you free time, were they paid? Thanks :) :) :)

[@AngelCabanlong]

hii, yup! still got paid for those free days hehe as long as u didn’t miss a day then u’ll get paid

[@AngelCabanlong]

also to clarify, we are paid sort of “per day” or as long as u complete the “16 hrs” (actually magulo tong part na ‘to) haha if in any case di ka makapasok, LAs have 4 justified absences for the whole duration of the program so mag ppresent ka lang ng excuse letter (justificante) para hindi sya ma dock off sa pay mo. If you miss a day w/o a justificante, i think it’s 33-36 euros yung maccut sa pay per missed day :)

Thanks for replying, Angel. Hopefully I pass the visa application this August. I am under BEDA though so not sure if they have same rules. Nevertheless, thanks for the informative video.
