“Congratulations, Fergal, you have devised a great way of enhancing MOTIVATION. The shows were definitely successful. The students really loved the show, and a lot of them asked me to invite you again this school year! Most of them realized it was a different learning experience, something unique in their school life.” Prof.ssa Monica Bergamo
“Thank you for giving us and our students some hours of learning with fun! The comments were enthusiastic.
The girls in the third class especially enjoyed the songs, and many said that they were happy because you spoke slowly and clearly, so that they could understand, and that you led them gradually into the activities. In the second class the boys were especially satisfied for being able to get directly involved too!
It was really a very nice and useful experience for them and for us.”
Prof.ssa Elena Bonino
