Participants comments

  •       The project has contributed to the achievement of its objectives, but above all it has allowed the development of the European Spirit. The development of the project has served to achieve the objectives set out in the Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions: "A vision for 2025 would be a Europe in the that learning, studying and research should not be hampered by borders. A continent in which to live temporarily in another Member State - to study, learn or work - has become the norm and in which speaking two languages, in addition to their mother tongue, is normal. A continent in which people feel intensely their European identity, the cultural heritage of Europe and its diversity. "

    As samples of the cohesion among the participants we have the following comments:

    • When you start a project thinking it's just work and instead you find friends! “. Maria Puccia, teacher from  Istituto D'Istruzione Superiore Einaudi Pareto

     

    • First of all: Thank you José for your great work organizing all that stuff during our visit. I can tell from our students, that they enjoyed very much the canoeing and the bicycle tour, even if they were not enthusiastic at first. Vincent, Hauke and Felix agreed, that this was the most inspiring trip.  During our long drive back, I had time to think about Jose's project. And I have to say that the majority of my experiences were overwhelmingly good. I do not want to miss the negative things, they are the potential for improvement. I do not want to miss the positive things, they are the motivation for upcoming projects. I will do everything possible to do my part for a successful conclusion. I'll need José's help every now and then.  And on the return flight, I realized that I had the great opportunity to meet incredibly loved and good people. I was very impressed by the fact that so many teachers from four EU countries have so much agreement politically and socially. In addition, we have shown a Europe for a large number of young people to fight for. For me, this is the real and real result of the project!”,  Mr Bernd Hollermann, teacher from BBS Osterholz-Scharmbeck.

     

    • It was absolutely a great experience to meet all of you wonderful people. Bernd is right, this must be the spirit of a united Europe. I hope I see you all soon and spend much more quality time together! But for now, I will miss you”,  Mr. Georgios, teacher from 1 EPAL CHIOU.

     

    • “It has been great working with you all in this project. It's been fun and learned a lot. Thanks and a hug!”, Mr. Hugo Fernández  teacher from IES Valle Inclán.

     

    • "Wonderful experience. The comparison with different peoples enriches the spirit",  student.

     

    • "It is an unforgettable experience, to meet other people, traditions, other ways of living, countries and incredible places", student.

     

    • "When it came to communicating with other colleagues it cost me a lot. And much more when we had to present the project in Italy. But Erasmus has helped me to take away a bit of stage fright and it has made me speak English in a more fluid way", student.
