Is Poland In Schengen Zone

Since time immemorial Poland has stood as a gateway between East and West, and, hence, is a country of surprising contrasts. It has risen to meet the challenges presented by the fall of the communist party in 1990 with style and aplomb. The new Zloty has stabilized, and inflation is slowly spiralling down - less than ten percent at time of writing.

  Jerzy is from Poland but is currently living in Latvia. He completed our 120-hour TEFL/TESOL course to further his education and career opportunities. He enjoyed learning about the ESA method and other techniques. Moreover, he did not think that lesson planning would be that useful and is now able to independently structure and create interactive lessons for his students. He is excited to make use of the new skills in teaching overseas.  [Read more]

Zone of proximal development (see Vygotsky) relates to the earlier concept of scaffolding, where learning takes place within the ZPD, i.e. don’t try to go too far too soon. Vygotsky believed there were three elements that would help the learner cross the Zone of development. These three aspects were having 1. Social interactions with people at a higher competence level than the learner 2. Structures available to help the learner bridge the gap and 3. A more knowledgeable other (MKO) to work with. This need not be a teacher.  [Read more]
