Pestalozzi programme


There are quite a lot of good reasons to attend in-service  courses. Teaching requires, in fact, a constant updating of one’s own expertise. Pestalozzi  is a Council of Europe  programme  for the professional development of teachers and education actors.  Participants  are offered the opportunity to attend interesting developing courses within any of the Signatory States to the European Cultural Convention.  This month last year, I was given the chance to attend a 4-day seminar in Cyprus. The organizers of this  seminar asked us - the participants,  to prepare a presentation of ourselves. Check out mine, Buona lettura, Marco

... and day brought back my night




This is a reading activity I devised for my ESP exam in 2001.
I tried it out in two classrooms  a couple of years ago and, believe it or not,  it worked!
