Mentoring

For us, it is very important to put the student in the centre so that he is not a passive participant in the process of traineeship and accumulating new knowledge and skills. This means that he has an active role in searching, retrieving, selecting and evaluating information from various sources. In these activities, it is key to develop effective teamwork and constructive communication. In this way, students will form critical thinking and solve problems.

Claudia’s success story

My name is Claudia, and I am a 17-year-old student in my fourth year of school in Italy. Currently, I am in Albania for my Erasmus+ mobility program. During this time, I have learned new skills such as Bootstrap and JavaScript. This journey has been incredibly fulfilling, as I have had the opportunity to meet new people and communicate in another language. I am deeply grateful for this experience!
