Experiences of hosting parents in Andria

  • Host families Erasmus experience

     

    Mr Leonardo Pistillo:
    From my point of view, Erasmus is not just a time when guys socialize with their co-aged comparing different ways of studying and teaching; it’s also a chance for our children to “go out from the family” learning to rely on themselves.

    Staying abroad is an opportunity to get rid of the emotional legacy from the parents, approaching new experiences in their own way.

    Despite it being a short time, I’m positive about students will feel nostalgic of the nice experience.

    Wish in a few years it will be the parents the ones who can join an Erasmus leaving their children at home!



    Mrs Marica Civita:
    Taking into consideration that a lot of students have already experienced a holiday on their own, the major opportunity that the Eramus+ project has given to our children is the chance to live, even if just for one week, in a different family and school context, with different culture and traditions and learn to adapt to them and to love them in the perspective of a European future.

     I was surprised and moved from the easiness with whom the children have connected and integrated. That means that youth doesn’t have any barriers or boundaries. And all of that makes us hopeful about their future.

    Personally, hosting (be it just for as few days) a boy so far away from his family it’s been like having a second child, whom, alas, we don’t have.

    I thank the teachers Farina and Sgaramella, and the high school Nuzzi for giving us all of this.

    Erasmus...described through the mind: a wonderful and constructive experience... described through the heart: an overwhelming emotion...Let’s praise the ones who have given the students the opportunity to live such and experience.



    Mrs Rosalba:
    Erasmus a project which has involved us both with the heart and with the mind.
    Unforgettable.

     

     

    Riccardo Lorizzo’s mother:
    This is an experience that all the students should live. We have been given a second chance. A lot of positive things ... the only negative one?
    It’s over! Thanks teachers.



    Mrs Giuliana:
    Erasmus... is the happiness to listen to your own child coming home saying : “Mum, we really had fun!”. It’s real fun, joy in their eyes and the enthusiasm to live together every single moment.
    Thanks for making us and our children living this experience. They will be fond memories forever.

     


    Mrs Chiara Di Bari:
    The happiness of us the parents is sharing this wonderful experience.

    It will certainly add value to their lives and will help them to be more self-confident. It’s nice hearing your own child saying on the leaving day: “I already miss him”.

    We have welcomed Roma'n as if he was a fourth sweet child of ours! What we have left is unforgettable memories and nostalgic moments.
    Thanks teacher for giving us this great opportunity.



    Mrs Antonella:
    Thanks teacher for giving us this nice experience.

     


    Davide Losito’s mother:
    Erasmus is an experience that has to be lived to grow up, not just for children but also for us the parents. During these days we have managed our daily routine differently and so have our children: so busy in living together, improving a language and making new friends, creating in this way a “global family”.

    All of us have given our children the freedom to live new experiences. I think that this has enriched their background of unique memories that they will missing and remember with happiness.

    Thanks teacher for giving us this opportunity.

     


    Mrs Tonia:
    Erasmus: a great opportunity for our children, which has engaged both culturally and emotionally the families as well.

    It’s an exchange of emotions, habits, traditions and languages, interacting with students from different nations but very alike to each other.

    I’m sure all of us will save long while the memory of this pleasant experience!

    Thanks a lot teacher Farina!



    Mrs Mariella Fiore:
    Actually, I didn’t have the chance to chose either to join the project or not as my son had already decided. Today I can certainly affirm that I don’t regret it (my son is probably far ahead of me), as this experience has been absolutely positive for both of us to widen our horizons.

    I really value teacher Farina, whom has made all of this possible. Besides, he has given the students the opportunity to commit themselves into the organization to make the foreign students staying as pleasant as possible.
