This is a Reception and Study Centre for Minors . Students live and study here . They are very special because of their low background and difficult experiences in their lives . They are in risk of social exclusion and English is their most difficult subject . But thanks to this project , their motivation and sense of belonging to the European society have
arisen . ABOUT ME
I have been working as an English teacher in minors centres since 2014 . In 2018 I started to learn about e-Twinning through workshops and seminars . This has been my first project , although not the only one for this academic year . Now I am also the principal of the school and my major aim is to assure the social inclusion of my students through European projects . At the same time , this is a perfect way to motivate them with the English language . This work has even been recognised in the Spanish press : https :// www . europapress . es / comunitat-valenciana / noticiaeducacion-contra-exclusion-instituto-conecta-menores-acogida-estudiantes-otrospaises-europeos-20220227133013 . html
