- I got up at 5.30 to get a train from Mulhouse to Basel using a Triregeo 3 country train ticket. Then I met Jonas and his sister and took train to village school. It was a middle school and I was to give a 2 hour lecture to 2 clases of 15 year olds
| Disaster | - no ..not too many disasters in Switzerland..but notice how the class clock runs backwards so I thought I had a lot of time remaining when in fact the class was just ending - oh and when I asked them to guess my age most said 55
| Impressionante : | - everything in that school was pretty much perfect and high tech ..so much easier to work in than the schools in Serbia or even Italy
| Met | all the students and teachers
|
|
Strange | - The class begins with the teacher shaking the hands of all the students ... wow English teachers aren't allowed to touch their students... I suppose it so the teachers build good relationships with the students
| | - I think the class went OK, though if it hadn't been such an early start I would have had more time to prepare the classroom etc
| Tip | - I'd wish I'd had time to remember to bring the students chairs photos so they could see the photos better
| |
- The teachers suggested I visit the county capital Aargau after the school, but since is out of the travel zone I explored Frick first. Then I decided to take the train to explore Rheinfelden.
