Hi!

I' definately looking to hook my students up with other students stuggling to use this crazy language accross the globe. It really gets their interest when they can actually communicate with people on the other side of the world..

Btw, I don't even have my sudents addresses, we would only exchange letters through the school..

But do get in touch asap! We've got some ideas for projects too!

tru

P.S. If you PM me I'll get an email to let me know so I can reply proptly. We are keen to get going soon too.

Hi!

I am interested too but I have to get reassuared that we (teachers) will try to work interculturally because I am Greek and my students are Greek and this will be an opportunity to teach them what unites us and not what keeps us apart.

I want my students to be taught tolerance and respect and this is a wonderful opportunity.

And if there is a teacher from Eastern Europe who is interested too, it would be excellent for my Greek students to know and understand the countries their foreign classmates come from and for my immigrant students to keep in touch with their mother countries.
