Reviews about this course
Erik Olssonfrom Sweden5 stars
We were given a diverse range of topics and assignments throughout the course, which added depth and variety to our learning experience. These assignments allowed us to explore different aspects of the subject matter and apply our knowledge in practical ways. It was a well-rounded approach that enhanced our understanding and engagement with the material.
Antoniette Caruanafrom Malta5 stars
It was an amazing experience where I had the opportunity to meet educators from 5 different European countries. We realized that we have a lot to learn from each other.
Tatjana Graffrom Germany5 stars
The course atmosphere was relaxed and familiar, but at the same time also professional and very interested in the further development of the participants. The learning content provided very good impulses and offered an excellent opportunity to return to everyday life at home with inspiration and new motivation. In addition, the exchange with other colleagues is an invaluable asset inside from other European countries.
