Hey all!
I'm thinking about applying for an ETA in Spain for the second time (I was an alternate for the 2015-2016 cycle). I am reviewing my old essays and the part I am questioning the most right now is the community engagement. Last time in my SGP I talked about facilitating and participating in athletics leagues or clubs, since I have always been involved in some sort of organized sport. I think this time I need to do a better job of explaining the community involvement and independent project. While athletics are still important to me, my current idea is to establish a pen-pal network for students using the connections I have (I'm currently a high school teacher) that I could continue to use once I return to the US.
Any thoughts or advice on how to approach the community engagement and independent project? Should I switch ideas or include both?
Thanks and good luck to everyone applying!
