I am an assistant coach to several youth soccer (fútbol) teams at C.D.C. Moscardó. I assist with practices while speaking to the players in English (most of the time). I am having a phenomenal time and would absolutely recommend it to anyone who likes soccer and working with kids. Alex Schnur, Tufts, Fall 2019

I help conduct training sessions for little kids in both spanish english. I get to run my own drills and also help the trainers conduct their own. I would highly recommend this internship if you like soccer and little kids. It is super low key, and very fun! I am learning a lot of both coloquial and soccer related spanish.

Working as a coach and English director has been an incredible experience. Immediately, I understood the talent disparity between the United States and Spain. Even at U9 and U10 I saw players more technically developed and making more intuitive decisions on the pitch then many players in High School and club soccer in the US. This experience has been a highlight of my time in Madrid and I have learned prodigious amounts about the beautiful game and am excited to apply my further developed soccer knowledge when I return to the States.
