Would you recommend this experience to your friends? If yes, why? If no, why not?
Gleb Pušin – I would recommend this experience, because when you are communicating with people from other cultures, you are changing your mindset and improve it.
Jekaterina Fiter – Yes, for teachers and youth workers.
Aire Sellal – Absolutely! I recommend Erasmus+ not only to my friends, but to everyone I meet. I strongly believe in non formal education and learning through experience. Erasmus+ offers equal opportunities to everyone. It is a great opportunity to travel, develop your skills, become aware of social realities and cultural differences and reinforce values such as solidarity, democracy and friendship.
Maksym Kiselov – Yes, definitely recommended. It’s a great opportunity to gain a clear understanding of educational processes, practical experience working in a team to create non-formal education sessions, plus deeper insights into Erasmus+.
Other comments or anything else you would like to share? You can answer in your mother tongue, if you want!
Jekaterina Fiter – Very intense week I really enjoyed it! Thank you!
