I have a dream
|
I have a dream...I �ve had it for years, but it seems I can �t make it: I �d love to visit a British school, spend a couple of days watching classes; I wrote to the Headteacher of a school near London, but didn �t get any reply. Any suggestions, dear colleagues? I �m not planning to organise a visit with my pupils, I �d just like to go there on my own, it doesn �t sound impossible, does it?

It would be better to enroll in some professional development course which provides that, because I don �t see how a school could let a stranger in their classroom. Sophia |

I �m afraid there are no courses that would just allow me to visit a school....

I �ve had the same idea in mind for years! I would love to watch a native teacher and kids (6-8 y.o.) at least during one lesson. I could help during the Spanish lesson in exchange...
I �ll be in London 17-24 January. If any of you think we can make it possible, let me know! Or if you are a native teacher teaching English as a foreign language in Paris, Barcelona, Antwerp or Amsterdam and can invite me to watch one of your lessons around those dates, please, send me a message.
Hugs! |

Have you tried to establish an official link-up and do some international project and then arrange a professional exchange visit?

Thank you Sonia, unfortunately I �m not free at all...I am the lucky mother of three children, and even if they aren �t youngs kids, I still have responsibilities here in France.I think the best thing for me to do would be to find a teacher in Britain who would be interested in a private arrangement, and I would be glad to welcome him/her in my school (it wouldn �t be a problem at all, our Headteacher would definitely be glad to open the doors of our school). Anyone interested? I live in the North of France, one hour and a half from London by the Eurostar...

Yes, Helena, the Comenius programme is very interesting, I �ll browse their site to see if I could find what I �m looking for.

In my country there are travel agencies which organise everything.
You have only two tasks:
1 Find a school which welcomes you or find a conference which you are interested in.
2 Get money from the European Union. You can pay for the agency �s work from this money.
Good luck.
