The experience was wonderful, our colleagues and the school principal gave us a really warm welcome; during our stay we established a very deep relationship between teachers and students from both countries.
It was surprising and pleasant to discover that, despite the cultural differences, we can fully integrate, we can exchange ideas, compare the respective school systems and the different teaching methods in a profitable way.
The experience was even more important for our students.
Here are the thoughts of our students after this new and exciting experience.
“When we left, we had no idea of the environment, the people we would meet and their culture.
We started our trip with one single certainty, that it would be a journey of discovery. We immediately found out that good manners are the most important thing for them: they tried their best to let us feel at home to the point of considering us part of their family. They cooked the best dishes of their traditional cuisine, they showed us around the most interesting places in their region.
We also had the opportunity to play games and sports together and to use English as a powerful communication tool. After just a day of practice we already felt we could express ourselves better and it was nice to be able to chat with our new friends!
We had the opportunity to get together with our peers in the Czech Republic and bond with them, as well as our mates from Acquasparta Secondary School.
We are looking forward to meeting all of them in June in Umbria. We will try our best to welcome them as wonderfully well as they did”
