What Our Participants Say

Voices from teachers and student groups who’ve spent their Erasmus+ week with us in Benalmádena.

“Perfectly organised teaching days — grammar, an introduction to CLIL, and plenty of time to prepare our own micro-teaching. We did the programme alongside four teachers from Finland whose sessions were really inspiring, and the whole week had a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. David was an amazing teacher — there for us whenever we needed him — and Benalmádena is a beautiful place; we managed lots of lovely trips.”
Lenka Žemličková
Teacher, Czechia

“David is an absolutely perfect teacher — his English lessons are fun but really effective. Everything was perfect and we were completely satisfied. I was 100% happy.”
Lenka Reinhartová
Teacher, Czechia
CLIL Teacher Training Course
“Everything was perfectly organised. The English teacher's approach was professional and, at the same time, warm and friendly.”
Lucie Kozáková
Teacher, Czechia
CLIL Teacher Training Course
“Everything was perfectly organised — the transfer, the accommodation, the school right by the hotel — and everyone responded quickly and willingly to any question. The teachers and all the staff were helpful, communicative and welcoming, glad to have us in their school — from the teachers right down to the smiling kitchen team.”
Hana Plachá

“Absolutely perfect communication and great organisation — everything done helpfully and without a hitch. At the school, everything was open to my colleague and me; the teachers and management gave us their time with a smile and showed us their teaching style and how the school works.”

“What fascinated me most was how inclusion works here — this is exactly how I picture it, and it functions really well. I'd gladly take part in a placement like this again; the insights were inspiring and the experience genuinely one of a kind.”
Ivana Kočíbová
Teacher, Czechia

“I loved how welcoming the local teachers were, the children's good behaviour and the way different year groups worked together. Calm and never rushed — and I really appreciated Viktor's approach; he always found time for us and shared whatever we needed to know.”
Diana Ketnerová
Teacher, Czechia

“We came away with so many valuable insights from a very high-quality education system and the care it takes over pupils' wellbeing. We were also struck by how they handle inclusion for pupils with special needs, and by the preparatory classes for immigrant children.”
Klára Marková

“A very warm welcome from the host team. The chance to reflect on the experience together with the teaching staff every day was genuinely valuable and enriching.”
