Hello dear partners! I am very pleased to be working with you again in the new school year. I would like to tell you briefly about myself and my school. I'm Bilge Varel from Türkiye. I'm a science teacher at the Mustafa Kiriş Secondary School. My 24th years as a teacher. I've been doing eTwinning projects for 10 years. I am interested in eTwinning projects with science, technology, sustainability, climate change, environment, STEM and cultural content. My professional development is very important to me. That's why I join the MOOCs at the European Academy and the European Schoolnet Academy. I am a Scientix Ambassador. My students are between 11-14 years old. My school is located in the province of Aydın in western Türkiye's Aegean Sea coast. There are 1400 students in our school. Therefore, dual education is applied (morning group and afternoon group). My project group is in the afternoon group. We will work with my 5th grade students (they are 11 years old) in our project. Our school received the eTwinning School label. Nice to meet you all. I am happy to work with you on this project.

My name is Camelia and I’m an English teacher with more than 30 years of experience in the classroom. I also work as the Deputy Head in Secondary School George Emil Palade in Buzău, a city quite close to Bucharest, the capital of Romania.

Teaching has always been my passion, but I’m also very curious about the novelties in education and how we can prepare our students for the 21st century. That’s why I’ve been part of the eTwinning community for over 15 years, and I’m also a Scientix Ambassador, promoting innovation and collaboration in schools.

Our school is quite big — we have about 1,350 students and we teach in two shifts. For Erasmus+, we involve mostly the members of our Erasmus+ School Club, especially the 6th and 7th graders, who are full of energy and eager to connect with other European students.

We’ve already gathered 8 years of experience with Erasmus+ projects, and right now we’re running an Erasmus+ KA1 accreditation. For the future, we’re very interested in setting up new partnerships, so that our students can share their experiences and also learn from others during mobilities.

I’m really looking forward to finding new partners and new ideas so that we can continue building meaningful projects together.

Alexia Chatzispyroglou, Aristotelio College Thessaloniki
Hello dear partners,

I am Alexia Chatzispyroglou, an English Literature teacher at Aristotelio College High School in Thessaloniki, Greece. I am excited to be part of the eTwinning project "Green Digital Citizen – Today, Tomorrow, Always", a project that focuses on nurturing responsible global citizens with a deep understanding of sustainability, digital competence, and environmental stewardship.

As an advocate for innovation in education and a Skills Educator, I am dedicated to helping my students engage with digital technologies in ways that support sustainable development and address real-world environmental challenges. Through this project, I aim to foster a learning environment where students can connect the power of technology with the urgency of the climate crisis, developing not only their academic skills but also their sense of responsibility as digital citizens.

My students engaged to this project, aged 14, are enthusiastic, digitally literate, and eager to explore how technology can be used to promote sustainability and global awareness. They are particularly passionate about finding innovative solutions to the environmental challenges we face and applying their knowledge of English to engage in global conversations about the future of our planet.

I look forward to collaborating with all of you as we explore how digital tools and innovative learning methodologies—such as Project-Based Learning, Collaborative Learning, and Flipped Classroom—can inspire our students to take meaningful action toward a more sustainable and just world. Our shared goal is to empower students to not only be better digital citizens but also to be proactive agents of positive change, both locally and globally.

As we embark on this exciting journey together, I am reminded of the words of Mahatma Gandhi: "Be the change that you wish to see in the world." Let's work together to guide our students in becoming the green digital citizens of today, tomorrow, and always!

Looking forward to sharing and learning from all of you!

Warm regards,
Alexia Chatzispyroglou

Hello, my name is M. Esther Pérez, and I am a Geography and History teacher at IES Francesc Tàrrega (Vila-real, Spain). I am delighted to take part in the project “Green Digital Citizen – Today, Tomorrow, Always”, an initiative I consider essential for educating our students in the values of responsible digital citizenship and environmental sustainability.

I firmly believe that projects like this allow us to open our classrooms to the world, foster teamwork, and develop key competences for our students’ future. I am convinced that this experience will be enriching both for the students and for us as teachers, as it gives us the chance to share good practices, learn from other European colleagues, and strengthen the international dimension of our school.

I look forward to contributing my knowledge and enthusiasm while continuing to learn from all the partners involved in this inspiring network.

Hello dear partners, my name is Gözde Yarbaşı Yurt.I am from Türkiye and I work at Mustafa Kiriş Secondary School in Aydın city. I have been teaching English for 20 years, and I really enjoy working with my students, who are 10-15years old.

I joined this eTwinning project because I believe international collaboration is a wonderful opportunity, not only for our students but also for us as teachers. Through this project, our students will improve their language and digital skills, discover new cultures, being a green digital citizen and learn to work as part of a team.

For me personally, eTwinning is more than just a project. It is a chance to share experiences, exchange creative ideas, and build long-lasting friendships with colleagues from different countries.

Hello!

My name is Cecilia VICOVEANU. I started my activity in 2000 as a biology (biochemistry) teacher in formal high school education. Since 2004, I have been working in non-formal education, where I still continue today, coordinating the Environmental Protection Circle at the Children’s Palace in Botoșani. I work with students’ free time, aged between 6 and 18 years, which is very important. The activities are beautiful and interesting, but it is a continuous and demanding work to maintain both their interest and attendance. This is also the reason why I enroll them in such projects.

I have been active on the eTwinning platform since 2014, participating in projects focused on environmental protection. Together with most of the partners in this project, we have managed to get involved and successfully complete attractive and valuable projects, which have been awarded with national and European Quality Labels.

Through this project, I would like us to help students become aware, active, and responsible digital citizens, who contribute to protecting the planet through smart choices, both online and in everyday life.

Many thanks to Iva and Bilge for this opportunity!

Good luck to everyone!
