Vasiliki Lymperiou, 2nd Primary School of Skiathos, Greece

2024-08-27 05:16:14 UTC

Hello dear partners!
I'm Vasiliki(Vasso) Lymperiou, an English language teacher in a primary school on the island of Skiathos, Greece. I have been teaching English since 1994 and I love my job. Etwinning projects gave me, some years ago, the opportunity to come in touch with teachers from other countries, improve myself and my teaching methods. I always take part in a new etwinning project every year with my 5th or 6th graders, so that they have a chance to practise and improve their language skills and ICT knowledge, get to know students from other countries and so broaden their horizons. All of them love projects and are looking forward to them.
I am 55 years old, my son is 16 years old, I love reading literature, watching films and going out with friends.
I hope we'll have a creative school year, full of new ideas but mostly safe, healthy and peaceful!!

Hello. I have been an IT teacher in Zonguldak, a beautiful city in Turkey, since 2002.

I work with students of different ages, groups of 4-10 students. I use various coding applications and WEB 2.0 Tools in my lessons.

I see how the change in technology changes people's lives. I want my students to know how old technologies emerged and what kind of change process they went through. I like to do eTwinning projects to see how this change affects my students and students in other countries.

Working with different teachers and learning new things excites me. I am very happy to be in this project.

2024-08-28 17:22:54 UTC

I am Alina Mateas, a primary school teacher with 27 years teaching experience. I strongly believe that the best way to develop students on multiple levels is to involve them in projects based on their interests. Students' engagement in projects significantly enhances their learning opportunities and develops cooperation and interpersonal skills through activities that involve solving relevant real-world problems.

I’ve discovered the eTwinning platform in 2009 and I am an eTwinning ambassador for Romania since 2020.

I’ve also coordinated Comenius and Erasmus+ projects focusing on various topics including inclusion and diversity, social-civic and intercultural skills development, social inclusion, sustainable development and climate change, digital transformation, online safety, and well-being in the digital world.

Hi, I'm Carmela Marilina Vitelli. I teach English in a secondary school. My students are 11-13. My school is in Chieti, a small and quiete town in the centre of Italy, about 200 kms from Rome. I Love travelling and I used to travel with my students every year in July, at the end of the school year here in Italy. We used to spend a week in England or English speaking countries. Etwinning helps my pupils and I to “travel” even if not by plane. Anyway, there's a whole world outside there and I'd like to keep in touch with it. Nothing will stop me from teaching my students how important it is to open their mind to other different cultures.

2024-09-23 15:32:03 UTC

I teach English in a middle school in Chieti, in central Italy. I have participated in several Erasmus projects in the past but I’m not very experienced in etwinning, not yet! ETwinning is a golden opportunity to work worldwide, to meet peolple and cultures, to learn and grow professionally and personally. My students are around 13 years old, they are as enthusiastic as me, curious and motivated. We often talk about inclusion, friendship, feelings but even more often they remain words and not actions or authentic feelings. Well, I would like my students to fill these words with meaning through this project and me... I would like to learn to use artificial intelligence, meet new colleagues and ... a thousand other things...
