Teacher from Ecole Albert Camus Tourcoing for job shadowing in our school

Between 11 and 14 April 2022 our school hosted Laurent Lentrebecq, a teacher from Ecole Albert Camus Tourcoing, France. The main aim of Laurent’s visit was to gain knowledge about the repercussions of COVID-19 lockdowns and online teaching on Polish students and the way they cope with learning after the pandemic. Moreover, it was also a great opportunity to exchange teaching ideas and learn how France coped with this difficult time. For pupils of our school it was a wonderful encounter with another authentic French native speaker with a great dose of humour ! Pupils were engaged in funny language activities and the lessons themselves. It was yet another situation to learn more about France, its culture and practice French language skills. Lauent spent nice time enjoying Przemyśl and the vicinity, for example Krasiczyn.
