ESTONIA PARTNER
ICELAND PARTNER
LATVIA PARTNER [CO-ORDINATOR]
And
DRIL is
looking to see what support and guidance the students call upon to help them
manage to work effectively in a team that is multi-cultural / lingual and in
different time zones. Dealing with time management, multitasking, people
skills, coping with conflict and how to negotiate.
And
DRIL would
like to teach some basic language skills to the students – within a masterclass
format using a WORKING vocabulary sufficient to complete / understand the tasks
– in Estonian Icelandic and Latvian.
So
DRIL is
mixing life and work skills with Business English competences and learning
about student preferences in the tools used / offered.
There’s more
. .
To reflect
the cultural diversity and similarity of the region, DRIL is offering content
that is drawn from Art [of the sea], Music and Food that highlights the region’s
diversity but that also illustrates common heritage. Drawing strength from our similarities
and inspiration from our differences.
WHAT THE DRIL
TEAM IS LOOKING FOR
·
PEOPLE
WHO KNOW FOLK DANCE
·
PEOPLE
WHO KNOW TRADITIONAL FOLK SONGS [ESPECIALLY FROM THE SEAFARERS]
·
PEOPLE
WHO KNOW HOW TO DEMONSTRATE THE COOKING OF TRADITIONAL FOODS [in a kitchen – or
as the hunters do]
and who could
give a demonstration / teach-in to a group of 18 students aged 16 – live [ideal]
or if it must be via ZOOM / GOOGLE or MICROSOFT meeting tool as a webinar.
Ideally we would like them to learn a song, learn a dance and learn how to cook
a traditional meal. The session would need to be planned and delivered so the
time commitment would be that.
It may be you
who could join us in delivering this project or maybe you know someone who
would be interested – if so please get in touch
