Good morning everyone!

I want to tell you about my Erasmus experience in Dublin. In August 2023 I spent time there thanks to the Erasmus+ programme. In Dublin, I was able to learn new methodological and didactic techniques related to language teaching, and not only that, I made contact with other professionals from all over Europe!

This way, when I came back, I was able to put everything I had learned into practice in the classroom. My goal is to motivate students and show them that learning a foreign language is not only easy, but also fun. It was a fantastic experience!

From November 12th to 19th, our colleague Marta completed an Erasmus+ stay in Vantaa, Finland, at the Mercuria school. There, she visited a vocational and adult education centre, where she was able to observe the way of working in this country, ranked first in education worldwide. She also received specific training on the education system and the methodologies used. This is what she tells us 🧏🏻:

“Hello! Thanks to our Erasmus+ project, I had the opportunity to travel to Finland and see how other European centres work. The experience was very enriching because I was able to learn not only from my Finnish colleagues, but also from the students. I felt very well supported and guided thanks to their warm welcome. Furthermore, it opened the doors to future student exchanges, which is our ultimate goal with this Erasmus+ project. Quite an experience! 👏🏽”

Stay tuned for more news, this is just the beginning!

Hello everyone!

Our colleague Marta was in Cork, Ireland 🇮🇪, from July 15th to 19th, visiting the University of Cork where she observed how English classes llaure taught at different levels, from A2 to C2. The observation also included Academic English and Business English classes. She was also able to compare the differences and similarities between Irish and Valencian, as minority languages, at the academic and institutional levels.

She also thoroughly enjoyed the international atmosphere at a fair where students from different countries took center stage and took the opportunity to ask about their customs and traditions.

As you ca see, Erasmus+ 🇪🇺 projects llaure a great opportunity for teachers to take new idees and bring them into our classrooms.

We continue developing our great little project with enthusiasm!

Our colleague Maria travelled to Palerm from September 22nd to 26th to participate in a training and cooperation activity on diversity and inclusion (TCA: ‘Inclusion for Newcomers in Erasmus+’), attended by a total of 67 teachers from 18 European countries.

Over the course of four days of work, Maria was able to network with other European participants with similar concerns and needs in the area of ​​inclusion, and she gained many idees for our school, which aims to be an open and inclusivament center capable of responding to all the needs that llaure identified.

Some proposals for cooperation with European partners have emergiu, and Maria will follow up on them to continue improving and learning in the future.

Our colleague Maria participated in a training course on environmental education that took place in Amsterdam from July 22 to 27. Maria’s participation in this type of training reflects the school’s commitment to sustainability and the need to stay up to date on crucial issues for the comprehensive education of students. This training has not only allowed her to acquire knowledge about the environmental challenges that we face as a society, but also to explore strategies to address them from the educational world.

The school will be able to benefit from innovative initiatives and sustainable policies that will emerge as a result of the training received. This knowledge can be applied to the school’s daily activities, from responsible resource management to the implementation of educational projects that actively involve students in protecting the environment. Therefore, Maria’s participation in this course ensures that our school continues to move towards a more conscious and responsible educational model, with the aim of inspiring change not only in the classrooms, but also in the behavior of the community surrounding our centre.

From August 19 to 23, our colleague Joan Fuset participated in an intensive course on the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to language teaching in Florence, Italy. The course allowed Joan to explore how new applications that use AI can transform teaching, working with various innovative digital resources.

During his stay, Joan shared experiences with teachers from other countries, created a personalized lesson plan and learned new methodologies that he can apply in the classroom. This training, part of the Erasmus+ project, highlights the importance of the programme in fostering European cooperation and improving the quality of education in our schools.

Florence, with its cultural heritage, was the ideal setting to foster creativity and the exchange of knowledge.
