Last Friday, February 9, the diplomas were delivered proving that the students of the Spanish Course for Foreigners have successfully completed the 40 hours of classes taught. The event included the presentation of diplomas and was attended by Gitte Lund Thomsen, Councilor for International Residents, Jean Paul Mulero, director of the Office of Attention to Migrant Persons (PANGEA) and Carmen Cerezo Aledo, president of the Association of Volunteers with Social Initiative (ATIS).
This diploma will help all of them to be able to request the social roots report, a prerequisite to request residency in our country.
The course, which began in November 2023 and ended in January 2024, was taught by ATIS teachers: Querubina Imbernón Valero and Belén Argüelles González, in collaboration with the PANGEA office of the Torrevieja City Council. The classes have been taught in the Miguel Hernández classroom of the Virgen del Carmen Cultural Center, and two cultural visits have also been made, one to Las Salinas and the other to the Casino Cultural Society of Torrevieja.
The origin of the students who have taught the Spanish course for foreigners covers three continents: Europe, Africa and Asia, thus collecting a sample of the current multicultural society of Torrevieja residents.
