On Tuesday we continued with the presentation skills. We discussed about things which are important when you are presenting something in front of the audience and how to make a good power point or pzeri presentations. Then we had to practise it in a small groups, every group choce their own topic (pandas, pencil, umbrella..) and they made the presentation of it to all others.

Comments from the Finnish students about the morning`s lesson:

-important theme, because someone might have fear towards the big audience

-it was great to get to know other students too

-fun to work together

-it was interesting to notice how differently different cultures understand the same issues

-it was to good to be the only Finnish in the group, because you really had to speak English!

-it is challenging when the level of English speaking skills are so different in the groups → it takes time to make everyone understand the theme and you must use very basic words.

-Cariem´s lesson was excellent! His presentation skills are very good and so it was easy to follow his lesson and learn of it.

-it was great fun to do the posters together


After Cariem´s workshop we heard a presentation of the German students´ council system. Every school made a little presentation of their students´council and we got lots of information about systems in others countries!
