It is such a honor to write this recommendation for Carlos Barata. At the time that Carlos was at The International School of Como, I was the PYP coordinator. We worked very closely on a series of student initiates to empower their voices and to build whole-school community. What I admired most about Carlos was his ability to connect with students of all ages from early years to middle school, families, staff and administration. His interactions were always professional, respectful and nurturing. He was greatly appreciated by the teaching staff for his hard work, commitment, willingness to help as needed and for his sense of humor. He was always eager to learn and to improve his practices as an educator. He would dedicate time, ask questions and seek constructive feedback from his colleagues so that he can improve the quality of his teaching and learning for the students. He is a man of high integrity and it showed in both his professional and personal life. I highly recommended Carlos for any position that he applies for. He will be a great asset to any institution.

Carlos was PE teacher at VVIS for 3 years and was instrumental in arranging a number of sports events with other schools in the Algarve, as well as being able to liaise with the local Lagos Municipality for our students to utilize their sports facilities. He left his mark in that he initiated a fitness scheme – an innovative idea which makes students aware of their levels of fitness. He is a very punctual, diligent and loyal worker who assumes the responsibility to his job and perseveres even when there is extra pressure such as having to work outside of his hours of employment. Carlos has an impressive talent for making sport and games fun, and to encourage those who do not have the same skills as their peers. As a person, Carlos gets on well with his colleagues and is respected by students and colleagues alike. I fully recommend Carlos for any position in the pastoral or sports educational field.
