Adventures in Argentina
Graham
Smith, a senior teacher at ESoE, spent four weeks teaching at a former
student’s school in Esperanza. Veronica Scherer first came to Eastbourne in
1993 and took her Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English (CPE) at
ESoE. Her experience encouraged her to start her own English language school
in Puerto Esperanza, in Argentina’s north-eastern Misiónes province.
Veronica returned to Eastbourne 14 years later with a group of Argentinian
students. She remembered Graham
well
and was delighted to see her teacher again, and invited him to spend five
weeks in her school. Graham stayed in a hotel, and lots of teenage and adult
students signed up for his intensive English course. Graham also ran a
successful teacher training course for local teachers of English.
Graham
enjoyed sharing a cup of traditional “mate” with his students during lesson
breaks. Mate is an Argentinian herb tea.
Here is Graham with his
hosts and students, and at the world famous Iguazu falls. |
