I was very glad to have this opportunity, I mean this day spend on examining the students of our groups on 16th January.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I am learning teaching and my major is English, so taking part of the exams was very useful to me. The other good part was \u00a0that I was on the other side of the table. Everyone took the difficulties and I felt a little bit strange because I thought they were feeling quite shy. They couldn\u2019t handle the situation that I was also there. I was with Andr\u00e1s Szab\u00f3 and Alba, our volunteer in the same commission.\u00a0 This day put quite a positive pressure on me and I really hope that I will also have another opportunity to take part at the commissions. I would like to say thank you to the Foundation. Kinga Kir\u00e1ly, J\u00e1sz 1<\/p>\n
“We were all excited at the whole day, because we knew that we are having a tremendous adventure in the afternoon. In the Community Centre we met the older ones and we ask questions about the exams because we were very exctied. As we entered the examining room, we all had a deep breath because the teachers were smiling at us and Miss Judit was also very kind, so we evaluated more easily.”

“I had another great pleasure with the help of the Cs\u00e1nyi Foundation: the mentors invited me to be part of the exam commitee. As I was sitting in front of the students I was thinking about how easy is to sit at the other side of the table. The levels were quite high and\u00a0 all the students evaluated very good. I didn\u2019t waited students with these high levels. The teachers were all very kind to everybody.” Alba Valejo Picado, volunteer from Spain<\/p>\n

Today (14th January) we went to the Cs\u00e1nyi Community House in Nagybajom to take part in oral exams. We helped the teachers to animate the discussions and then at the end we helped to decide the grades. This was probably the most difficult aspect for us as initially we were unfamiliar with the grading system. It was also quite strange to be judging people whose position we were in not long ago.The oral exams were in English and German. Overall we were impressed by the students\u2019 abilities and we can really appreciate the great work being done by the foundation. The people here were very welcoming for us, and made sure that we were comfortable at all times. Both the teachers and the young people were very friendly and we even were invited for a dinner. To conclude, was a pleasure for us COMPASS volunteers to work in the Cs\u00e1nyi Community House in Nagybajom and spend time with the students and the team that works here.” Felix Martin \u2013 Germany, James Ellwood \u2013 UK, Joshua Peters \u2013 Germany from COMPASS<\/p>\n KAPOSV\u00c1R – <\/strong>Tuesday The exams continued today (13th January) in Kaposv\u00e1r, where the kids gave an account not only of their English but also of their German knowledge. The seven graders took part for the first time in such an exams so they were more than excited. The elder ones had more routin and they enjoyed showing, how well they use foreign languages.<\/p>\n As a volunteer<\/strong><\/p>\n “January 2015, English exam in the Cs\u00e1nyi Foundation Kaposv\u00e1r Community HouseThis was not my first time being an examiner at the Cs\u00e1nyi Foundation English exam. It was nice to see the students of the Foundation again and to witness the improvement in their English. They were well-mannered, well-prepared for the exam and their communication skills were very good. Congratulations! It was also interesting to hear their views on the different topics. All in all I was glad to have the opportunity to help the valuable work of the Foundation.” William Hamlin<\/p>\n SZEGED – <\/strong>Monday On the 12th of January the half term oral exams of the Cs\u00e1nyi Foundation started with B1 and B2 levels in Szeged. The aim of the practice exam is to prepare the students for the real language exam. The children have the chance to practice the language, get feedback and evaluation of their half year progress. At the end of the school year the best performing students can participate in a one-week language course in England. The children were well-prepared, motivated and they were mature enough to know what they are working for.<\/p>\n As a volunteer<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201eThe oral exams in Szeged proved to be successful and inciting. The pupils\u2019 accomplishments were promising, most of them passed the exam without much difficulty. As for me, I very much appreciate the Foundation\u2019s activities, which are aimed at the support of talented juveniles. It was good to see the progress of these young talents, and I hope they will continue to walk on that path.\u201d\u00a0 Szabolcs V\u00f6r\u00f6s<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
