De la mejor nota de la PAU al Premio Extraordinario de Fin de Carrera «Capitanía General de Valencia

We spoke in depth with a talented young man from Torrevieja who has once again made headlines for his impressive academic achievements. Having previously obtained one of the highest scores on the University Entrance Exams (PAU) in the Valencian Community, this brilliant public school student was recently awarded the prestigious "Capitanía General de Valencia" Extraordinary End-of-Degree Prize, a recognition given exclusively to the 27 students with the best academic records across all universities in the region. We also shared a meal with his mother and his aunt, a well-known local businesswoman, to learn about the human element, the effort, and the sacrifices behind a career filled with top marks. How do you achieve academic success without neglecting personal well-being? What study techniques set a top student apart? During the interview, the young philologist and applied linguistics researcher revealed his experiences at the Virgen del Carmen school and the IES Mediterráneo high school, firmly defending the value of public education as a driver of equal opportunities. We also analyze the current state of the education system, hybrid learning formats such as blended learning, and the recent teachers' strikes demanding improvements in infrastructure, classroom climate control, and reduced student-teacher ratios. What are the career paths and specific applications for Hispanic philology graduates? The interviewee clarifies the importance of linguists in key sectors such as doctor-patient mediation and the development of clear infographics in healthcare centers. Far from the image of a secluded student, we discover his great passions outside the classroom: his artistic side, cultivating figurative portraiture; his love of running to clear his mind; his taste for 2000s pop music; and his complete disinterest in soccer, preferring tennis. What impact will artificial intelligence have on education and employment in the future? As a linguistics expert, he offers a critical perspective on the use of AI, understanding it as a tool for optimizing time in mechanical tasks, but arguing that deep reflection should remain in human hands. Looking to the near future, he exclusively shares his plans for next September, when he will begin his predoctoral research and teaching position at the University of Alicante after completing his master's degree in secondary education. Finally, he offers valuable insights for families and students affected by university entrance exam cut-off scores, reminding them that success is not limited to a single stage of life and emphasizing the crucial value of vocational training and traditional trades in our society today.
