The collaboration of teachers, students, schools, parents and local authorities is one of the most important elements of eTwinning. At eTwinning, teachers work together to organize activities for their students. They play an active role, socialize, explore, make decisions, respect each other and learn skills for the 21st century.

# data[].attributes.body
My students really enjoy participating in eTwinning partnership projects. Thus, they discovered and practiced not only the language side, especially English, but also developed digital skills, which were very useful to them when they switched to online education.

# data[].attributes.body
I have been a member of eTwinning for 4 years, but have engaged more proactively since 2020. I find it is an amazing resource to teachers willing to share ideas and projects and to work together despite distances.

Experience, knowledge interchange, cultural based thinking for digital sharing work.
I know e-twinning since 2019 and show how to use it to my HE (higher education) students, future teachers). I had an  e-twinning recent experience of coordination sessions between portuguese and spannish primary schools.
Sharing is the best way to have digital learning experiences

I'm at the "starting point"
I've joined the eTwinning community since 2019, I've already participated in
Erasmus Projects
The main advantage is the collaborative work with teachers and students.
My main goal now is learning how to "manage" the eTwinning live platform in order to be at ease with collaborative projects.

# data[].attributes.body
I´m just starting, so I don't have any experience with eTwinning communities. However, I have some experience with Erasmus+ projects and I think they are very important  to improve several skills like communication, creativity, collaborative work, respect for cultural differences, empathy, and so on. I met fantastic people and extraordinary projects that inspired me...

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered eTwinning over 10 years ago when I coordinated a Comenius project and for the last couple of years, I have tried to be an active eTwinner. My school has many Erasmus+ projects, which have proved to be extremely beneficial for our students and has resulted in the desire to become more active as an eTwinning school. Our experience has shown us that etwinning is an excellent way to help our students become more active as European citizens and become more aware of other countries realities. I hope that our students continue to become involved in Erasmus+ project and actively participate in e-twinning and grow as people with good solid values promoted through the interaction with students from other countries.

# data[].attributes.body
Participation in the eTwinning community has allowed me to approach with a new way of teaching in the classroom, an interactive and more stimulating way. it was also a stimulus for collaborative work within my own school and especially with other schools in other countries: I think working together for a common goal is the winning strategy in a world in constant transformation!

# data[].attributes.body
as for me, eTwinning is fundamental and it has helped me to improve my digital skills. Thanks to etwinning I've met lots of collegues and students from different countries which has contributed to innovate my strategies. Morever due to the cooperation we had started with etwinning projects, we have carried on Erasmus projects and we have had the opportunity to meet face to face

# data[].attributes.body
I've been in this community for a few years now and it has been an incredible journey, especially these last couple of years. My students and I have learnt so many things about esafety, netiquette and copyrights, digital tools, cooperation, and working together with people from other countries and cultures. There are still many goals and projects to accomplish. I wish to be more involved and involve more teachers and students from my school. I want them to experience the beautiful benefits of being involved in eTwinning projects (either through Erasmus + or not).

# data[].attributes.body
I participate with my students in several eTwinning projects every year. I just can see benefits and new ways of learning

# data[].attributes.body
eTwinning and SEG give me opportunities for professional development and improving my teaching skills and that is how I'm becoming better teacher. My students improve their language skills, meet colleagues from different countries also learn how to use IKT.
I meet woderful people who inspire me in my professional work.

The eTwinning projects be  a good way to aproach teachers and students in a collaborative work and promote the citizenship education.
I joined this learning community in 2019 and so far I have participated in  some projects, met great people and developed multiple skills in my students.
I am  mentora eTwinning and I developed internal training for my colleagues and motivated them to participate in this program.

# data[].attributes.body
I know for eTwinning for a few years now ant it helped in my professional development. It had even bigger roll in improvement and growth of my primary school, specialy for my colleagues and our students.

# data[].attributes.body
First of all, I believe eTwinning plays a very importante role in the teaching community. In eTwinning teachers work together and organise activities for students, igniting an active role, interaction, investigating, making decisions, respecting  each other and learning 21st century skills. eTwinning projects involve the contribution of each member of the team and I have been a part of this working platform sive 2019. My school is an eTwinning school and we are all involved and committed in spreading and sharing our best practices, in working together and with european partners in order to communicate, collaborate, develop projects, share and, in short, feel and be part of the this inspiring learning community. To achieve its full potential I'm committed in learning more through teacher training and creating/ developing or partnering with more projects in different areas or competences.

# data[].attributes.body
I knew about e-twinning, but I have never joined it. This year I have decided to try and I have to say that it is a wonderful world. Thanks to e-twinning projects, you can meet new people and share ideas or opinions.
Students feel more motivated and they enjoy speaking English.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered etwinning about eight years ago and I was completed involved by this new approach to learning and teaching. My first project was amazing. I worked with one of my colleague and a new etwinner like me, who was so contagiously enthusiast and hard working to guide us.We made a lot of mistakes because we were taking our first steps in etwinning but we enjoyed very much. Now I can say that I am almsot an expert even if I think I can learn always new things and have new experience thanks to etwinning.

My participation in the eTwinning community has benefited me because it has enriched  all my work at school, and thus, I believe, my school as a whole. It has made me aware of other teaching / learning methodologies and new apps; it has allowed me to meet great eTwinners, to motivate my students and help them develop multiple skills, etc.

I would you like to keep on learning and sharing ideas, projects, materials, etc. in this community.

I joined the eTwinning a long time ago, and since then I have learned a lot with the worked shared with other ewtinners. I get more envolved with project since I became a eTwinner mentor of my eTwinning school. I have benefit with both experiences, as ewtinner and as entusaisctc teacher that want to share with other teacher the advantages of praticipating in ewtinning project, on they skills but specialy on the pedagocial perspective and achieving goals of sucess.

I can say that my work and teaching in my classroom has become of higher quality and more applicable since I have been a member of the eTwinning community. I have woven the projects I carry out into the curriculum of the class in which I teach. The greatest advantage on this platform I consider cooperation with other teachers and the wealth of ideas that teachers share with each other.

# data[].attributes.body
I have been part of the ETwinning community for some years now, but I began being involved and active a couple of years ago. My school has various ETwinnings and Erasmus+ Programmes and would like to learn a bit more about them.

I joined my first project this year and it's been so rewarding, because other fellow teachers were motivated and collaborated. Also, because it was a solidarity project dedicated to the Ukrainian people, and I felt we were doing a good job.
I feel that I need to take a step in a new direction to keep myself motivated. That will reflect itself on my teaching and eventually in my school, I believe.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm a registered eTwinner since 2017 and it's been quite a journey. I've met many people from different countries, and learnt new ways to collaborate both with teachers at my schools/ abroad and increase my students' motivation and active participation in class. Students' enthusiasm to share with others interesting facts about their culture and country, makes them more engaged and critical thinkers. At the same time, digital competence and communication skills are developed, as well as the values of tolerance, mutual understanding and solidarity.

The European eTwinning platform is the school I have always dreamed of. A School where one could learn about everything and grow both as people and professionally. My pupils have learned what it means to be European Citizens thanks to the eTwinning projects that I have always done since May 2014 when I joined eTwinning. My pupils and the whole school community is growing with the values of Solidarity, Peace, Interculture, Inclusion and Respect for Differences that make us unique and special. eTwinning is for us Creativity, Collaboration, Joy, Friendship, Passion, Commitment, Responsibility...

# data[].attributes.body
This is my first year using eTwinning and I have discovered a world of opportunities from the beginning. To start with, a community of teachers that collaborate and share good practices for a common goal. Also, the social impact that eTwinning projects have in students, which in my case are VET students: not only a new learning experience, but also a professional network abroad. Finally, the sense of feeling part of the large European community.

I have been involved in etwinning since 2013 and have been very enthusiastic about it ever since.
Working on etwinning has greatly contributed to my professional advancement, and collaborating on projects has brought many new acquaintances, knowledge and experiences.
As the principal, I motivate my fellow teachers to get involved in etwinning, so we have already been awarded the etwinning school label (2019., 2021.). In our county we were the first holders of this label, and now five schools are holders of the etwinning school label. We are all very proud of that!

I've been registered on the eTwinning platform since 2015. From 2017 I was involved, together with other colleagues, in two Erasmus+ projects related with mathematics. In addition to these, my school has been participating in other Erasmus+ projects with different countries and we have several teachers involved. Both teachers and students, they have had good experiences. I think all together, teachers and students have learned a lot from each other about different cultures, and different ways of teaching/learning.

# data[].attributes.body
I love to work with foreign partners in collaborative way because we learn from each others and we meet new people, new cultures and new ways of working.

In eTwinning community, I have learnt a lot,  cooperation, technological tools,  netiquette, esafety, creation of  a project, its aims,  etc; but eTwinning community is  above all  "a compass"  to understand the  world of school and its future. Where every person is linked to others and is not alone, he can ask for help and there are no misunderstandings, peace and values of inclusion spread.
It’s a great opportunity!!!

My first contact was when I did a MOOC on eTwinning, to complete the MOOC I did the first project (short term).
Etwinning is very important for my professional development, access to good practices (exchange of ideas), pedagogical innovation and valuing the work done by students through its dissemination.
As a teacher in public education in Portugal, I feel that my activity is very little valued at my School, participation in projects requires that I occupy my free time, that is, it translates into more hours of work, the school does not include projects in which I participate in my schedule.

I'm new in this community. I star this school year and I am learning a lot.
I have a colleague eho motivated me and I understand that is an important tool. In the last years, I was in Erasmus+ projects and  I realise that is complementary.
The main advantage is to share with other teacher and students, knowledge and experience.
My main goal now is learning about the platform in order to be at ease with collaborative projects.

# data[].attributes.body
My first contact with Etwinning was several years ago. At that time I participated with other colleagues in a project related to different cultures and we shared some works done by our students. It was a great experience but unfortunetly in the last year I haven't developed any project. So, this will be a restart for me that I hope will contribute to improve my teaching/learning experience.

# data[].attributes.body
There are many benefits to participating in Etwinnig activities. I have been participating in Learning Events for several years. So far, I have only participated in a few smaller projects. By participating in projects, you can meet new people, the way of teaching, new knowledge and experiences.

My participation in the eTwinning community has benefited me enormously. First as a source of professional development by participating in webinars and learning events. Secondly in networking with colleagues from different schools and countries  in groups with sharing and being inspired by innovative pedagogies and the creative use of web tools. Third by participating in seminars organised by NSS. Last but not least by participating in eTwinning projects with my students and share their ethusiasm and help them to build their skills. We learn so much from working with our peers. As for the future I would like to persuade my colleagues to join the world of eTwinning and it would be great if I could found a project.

# data[].attributes.body
I've been in eTwinning for 3 years. The main reason for joining was to find "friends" to my students and I did, I have found them the safe environment for practicing their skills. Also, I made a lot of friends and learned sooo much. I would like to learn more and help my school become eTwinning school; to me eTwinning schools are open to others and they are friends to others.

# data[].attributes.body
The eTwinning community has brought lots of benefits to me. Firstly, it enabled me to collaborate with other teachers across Europe on international projects which introduced a new dimension into my lessons. My students became more enthousiastic and more motivated. Learning English in an international community makes lessons challenging and provides a natural context for learning. Furthermore, eTwinning helped me to work more on my professional development because it offers lots of possibilities through webinars and online courses. In future I would like to become an experienced eTwinner and contribute to my school's excellence.

I've been in eTwinning since November 2019 and I was involved in some projects in my previous school, where I earned four quality labels. I learned a lot with my participation in the eTwinning projects, I manage to understand how to work in the Twinspace, learned more about different cultures and countries, learned new apps and the most important my students were motivated and involved in their learning. It was a great experience and I would love to continue. So I'm attending this course because my new school is not an eTwinning school and my colleagues don't really know eTwinning so I hope to be helpful and bring some of them to eTwinning.

I've just got into eTwinning, but I'm working on two different projects regarding climate change and learning from grandparents. The opportunities that this tool offers is unlimited and we (teachers and students) are  learning day after day.

Being in touch with such different countries and cultures such as Turkey, Hungary, Poland or Azores (Portugal) makes our students more motivated and involved in their learning.

The benefits that the community brought me were the possibility of meeting people with interesting and diverse work methodologies, sharing knowledge of cultures and ways of being from different countries, carrying out different projects with multiple approaches and developments, joining and dedication of the students involved and obviously the gratification for seeing my work and the work of the various teams recognized as an asset both for the students and for the school where I teach. My goals beyond personal enrichment is for my school to become an etwinning school.

I am an eTwinner since 2016. At the beginning, I have learnt a lot. Not only how to work with other foreign teachers (practising english, a wide range of technological applications) but also the idea to be part of a global teaching approach. Working on eTwinning is so useful to show how learning English is vital to work and speak with other students and general people. I would like to involve all my staff on working a common eTwinning project from 3 to 12 years old.

Working with children through eTwinning has been a wonderful journey. I'm an eTwinner for more or less 5 years and one step at a time I've been discovering its potentialities. It's not a closed circuit, it's a never ending of great possibilities. I've been involved in several projects, the first ones were short term and then I moved on for long term. I've already created my one project. I realize it is possible to collaborate despite great distances, to develop language communication, to improve ICT tools and to make teaching and learning more innovative. The great achievement yet to overcome is to be able to attract other teachers to this awesome world of eTwinning that they are so frighten of. They haven't realised yet that this is a powerful tool that helps the process of teaching, learning and evaluating.

I can't remember how I discovered the eTwinning community. It feels so natural now planning an activity for my pupils and immediately think "How can I involve other teachers in it? How many different ideas about this topic are there to be discovered with other etwinners?" I learned a lot from my partners (planning tips, tools, methodologies) and probably I'll never be able to thank them enough!
My next goal is to be able to involve my colleagues in eTwinning to strengthen our school community and make the most of our journey together.

The School of Real (AER) aims to: a school attentive to students and with an interaction based on affection. So, as it is a school attended by different nationalities and ethnicities, it seeks to respond to the integration needs of these students. And increasingly respond to the need to implement teaching geared towards multidisciplinary and digital training of students, teachers, employees and guardians.

E-Twinning offers great opportunities for applying innovative teaching methods and it leads to teaching growth through collaboration. Furthermore, it paves the way for creative learning and creates a strong interest on the part of students who no longer feel left out from the teaching process.

I joined etwinning very recently. Therefore, in this initial moment I intend to inform myself completely and correctly on how everything works: what etwinning consists of and which projects can be developed.

I'm a "beginner" 😎! I've joined the eTwinning community since 2019 and at the moment I am the mentor of my school.
At this moment I feel already benefited, because I started to participate in Erasmus Projects by means of this community.
I am developing informal training for my colleagues in order to motivate them to be etwinners, too.
The main advantage is the collaborative work with teachers and students.
My main goal now is learning how to "manage" the eTwinning live platform in order to be at ease with collaborative projects.

I've been an eTwinner since 2018 and I've always been active. Participating in eTwinning projects is an excellent experience both for me and my students. I've learned a lot about innovative teaching practices, Web2 tools,  and met interesting teachers from many different countries so I feel I've been enriching myself personally and professionally. My students love being on projects because they have an active and decision-making role and they improve their skills: language, communication, digital, cultural, collaboration (team work). They become more autonomous and responsible and they love meeting and speaking to students from other countries. They enjoy interacting, creating and sharing their works. They feel really proud. I've already been awarded 5 European Quality Labels and last year one of my eTwinning projects "New Literates of 21st Century", won the National Prize 2021, category Theme of the Year - Media Literacy and Disinformation. I and my class were very proud. This year I'm in 2 projects, each one with a different class, and with the support of other teachers. It was recently created the eTwinning Junior Academy with a group of very interested students and I'm the responsible teacher.
My school is an eTwinning school and I'm the eTwinning Mentor in my school. I feel very satisfied because first of all, I've succeeded in getting all my colleagues registered in eTwinning and also succeeded in motivating and involving several colleagues in projects. As I always want to learn more and more. lifelong learning experience, I'd like to have the opportunity to share experiences, learn more innovative practices, gain deeper knowledge, cooperate with other colleagues and build new relationships. I want to succeed in sharing my enthusiasm with my colleagues at school. It would be very rewarding. I think eTwinning is a powerful tool to reach our goals.

I joined the community in 2021 and I have already founded two projects, and the second is now finishing. The first project obtained a seal of quality. The most recent project involved collaborative work with teachers and students from 3 schools in Turkey. It was very motivating for me and my students. These experiences and collaborations are very enriching, both in terms of sharing knowledge and learning. I hope to be able to continue to develop this type of projects and participate with other countries. At the moment I am participating, as a responsible teacher at the eTwinning Junior Academy, a pioneering project in Portugal, with some students already involved.

I have partcipated in different etwinning projects and my students like it very much. We have done activities although there are different ages, work with teachers and students from many countries of Europe are very interested. Sometimes it is very hard to coordinate with others but it is very rewarding.

I saw colleagues participating in eTwinning projects. They were thrilled, not only they but their students as well. I would like to be able to participate in the near future too: meet new colleagues, work and create together, make teaching more creative.

The etwinning community, allows any teacher from any European country to share their experiences with all its members.
Sharing is undoubtedly the best way to learn and improve your practices, because no one lives alone, we all need everyone.
In my school it is necessary to involve more teachers in order to obtain the etwnning quality seal. I intend to learn more and thus help the bad students and my colleagues, that is, to make my school a local reference.

I have experienced Etwinning for many years since it was our reference website for Erasmus projects, where I was involved with teachers and students. But I had no idea about the various opportunities offered by taking part actively in its projects. This year I have been working in two projects together wit a colleague of mine who gave me the occasion to experience new teaching methods and meeting fantastic collegaues from different European countries. But above all, I have been able to touch the positive impact that such activities have had on my students. They have changed their approach to the language totally, by interacting actively with their mates and participating enthusiastically in the tasks. They love sharing their works, videos, thoughts and ideas and have improved their language and digital skills greatly. I would love to continue working in Etwinning and do hope other colleagues in my school will join me and discover the Etwinning world of professional and personal improvement!

I first joined the eTwinning community in 2011. I started with a project with a Polish school to practise German. Later I started
seaching other schools to exchange experiences and projects together to practise English. Then I started with Comenius projects, etwinning and Erasmus projects. This platform has played an important role during my teaching experience because it has been a path towards Europe. I also use this platform to join a lot of groups and get a lot of knowledge. Our school uses eTwinning to upload all the Erasmus projects on the Twinspace.

eTwinning is the better course on digital engagemant and collaboration! It provides us many usefull tools, getting to know people/schools/countries but most of all it helps school to grow and achieve many goals.
In my group of schools we need to get more people involved in eTwinning/European projects, so that we effectively have a whole school approach on the international collaboration!
