“My learning journey started with a Twitter

conversation, which although I didn’t know it, would

have a huge impact in the way I approached

teaching from then on.

I started collaborating with teachers who I’d never

met … Answering calls for Mystery Skype

Sessions, leaving comments in their classroom

blogs … have become part of my daily routine.

I went from being an isolated teacher of

English as a foreign language to a valid

reference to teachers who need to

expose their students to other voices from

around the world.

I have become more confident, and I

have learnt a lot about their countries,

customs, and way of life.”

The Global Classroom Project in Taiwan

Involved In:

● Mystery Skype

● The Malala Project

● Puppet Exchange Project

● Todd’s Postcard Swap Project

For Students:

It enables students to have distinct direct

contact with peers/teachers of other nations in order to gain new perspective about the world they live in.

It provides teachers with various choices of projects in order to integrate students into international education and enriches our teaching experiences.

Teachers around the world in the group are dedicated and help one another in the platform. This creates a sense of belonging.

The Global Classroom bring us an access to explore the world with wonderful friends among nations.

The Power of Passion!My students connected with the founders of Purus, Aaron and Garrett. We

were so touched by the need of the SAV School and the passion of Aaron and

Garrett, that we decided to lend a hand. We held hockey card sales, bottle

drives, penny drives and an art action. In total, my students raised $1250.00,

enough money to buy 20 water filters!!

The Global Genius Hour Project
