An Erasmus+ story from Rome

In October I traveled to Italy and participated in the training project "PARLO (Promoting Actionsto Remove Learning Obstacles), which included participants from Italy, Greece, France, Poland, Turkey, Spain, Romania and the Czech Republic. The program was very interesting, very well organized by the facilitators in an environment that made you feel comfortable and familiar from the very first moment. In a context of respect, acceptance and creativity, we discussed the general barriers to language learning and learned effective techniques and non-standard educational tools and resources that have designed to help young people acquire foreign languages, inspiring them to overcome challenges and thus enhancing language learning. Everyone was very friendly, willing to share their experiences and open to new ideas and suggestions. I had a great time, got a lot of knowledge from the program and I am grateful to have been a part of this group.

Another Erasmus+... or not.

A training course on learning foreign languages in Rome. Does that sound ideal? And indeed it was. Participants from 8 countries with a common passion for language learning and intercultural communication met in the eternal city and the experiences we shared will remain forever precious in our memory. With the support of an excellent facilitator Christian Cibba and the renowned language coach Elisa Polese we explored the difficulties and common obstacles encountered by those trying to learn a foreign language and the ways in which these obstacles can be overcome.

The fruit of our collaboration is a guide with practical suggestions and ideas that everyone can use and we hope it will inspire and motivate more and more people to learn languages and thus open new windows to the world.
