Vincent Summary

1. Did meeting in Estonia fulfill your reason for attending?

I had a range of things which I wanted to find out about in Estonia both educational and cultural.

Education:

In educational terms I think thank most of my objectives were achieved.

  • · I learned of the new ways/techniques that the Estonian education systems was pioneering.
  • · I made new contacts for more commenius and learnardo projects
  • · I gained a greater insight into the teaching systems in the rest of Europe.

Cultural:

· I found the Estonian culture extreamly rich and fully expressed.

  • · Estonian singing is lovely and the dance both similar and yet different to what I would have learned as a boy.
  • · I felt that it would have been good to have visited a Russian school as they make up 35 % of the population of Estonia.


2. What was the most interesting for you?

I found the history of Estonia fascinating as much as I tried to understand it all before coming it is only when you are in a country can one get a true insight into a country's history.



3. What do you think about Estonia?


I liked found Estonia to be a fascinating and complex country. It is full of traditional building and a love of the past yet the people are always considering how to embrace new technology and new methods into their daily lives.
