ITZIAR, AN EXCELLENT STUDENT

On Tuesday, May 10th , Emilio communicated me that one of his Economy students in the last year of the school, Itziar García Bellver, had obtained one of the prizes, the fifth one, in the Economy Olimpics contest. By doing so she has joined the select group of students of the school that have won a similar award in the past years. All together constituting the most numerous group of students with prizes in similar contest of our school.
I am not surprised that she has got the prize. Even more, when I signed the requests of participation I told Emilio: this year you are participating with a premier league player..
I have been Itziar´s teacher for three years. She was one of the pioneer students that took part in the trilingual project , where she was taught the following subjects in english:biology-geology of 3rd and 4th of ESO and Science for the Contemporary World of 1st of batxillerat She is, since then, one of my “golden” girls.
Along these years I have been able to notice her abilities and personality: excellent student, quite respectful with her colleagues and teaching staff, a bit reserved about her life but with very clear ideas about her points of interests and goals, without ever boasting about her academic results, capable of facing unpleasant situations (like when she had to deal with a complicated student during an exchange with a Dutch school,…
A pleasure for the teaching staff and her colleagues.
Congratulations with sincerity. You deserve it. And a last advice: don´t let let success, which you will certainly have , ever change the way that you are now.
