A Day at Akademia


Hello everyone!


After a long break, we got back to work. I can’t lie, I thought that it was going to be very difficult to adapt working after the holidays, but once I got in the atmosphere I realised that I actually missed it. So I started working on our meetings excitedly💪 Since it is the beginning of a new year, we have a lot of events on our list. Last Saturday, we have started with our meeting with Akademia Humanistycza im. Aleksandra Gieysztora w Pultusku.

Akademia Humanistycza im. Aleksandra Gieysztora w Pultusku is a school which provides higher education to their students in many different fields. We have visited a class of Education Studies department whose graduates will be teachers and pedagogues.  The aim of the meeting were to introduce ourselves and our projects in Pultusk, present our countries in general and talk about the education system in our countries. For me, it was a very interesting topic since I am an English teacher. I was curious about the current situation of education and the status of teachers in different parts of the world.

We had presentations about Croatia, Honduras, Taiwan, France and Turkey.  All of us talked about the examination system, schooling years and how they are divided, universities and etc. We had a chance to compare and contrast the education in these countries. It was really interesting to see how the system differs from each other. The students listened to our presentations interestedly. The teacher, Joanna Popielska helped us with the translation when it is needed, and also asked us some questions about the things that she found interesting.









After our presentations, the class has been divided into smaller groups where we can have conversations. The aim was to discuss about education but they were also curious about our project and our opinions about Pultusk, Poland and Polish people it was a nice opportunity to learn about each other better and talk about volunteering. Then, we have discussed on some controversial issues about education such as uniforms, examination and social status of teachers. These discussions enabled us to see the differences and similarities of the current situation of education and to explore each other’s opinions on diverse topics.





I can say that it was definitely a satisfying start to a great year thanks to this meeting. It was very informative for all of us. Thanks to Akademia and Joanna Popielska for welcoming us in their class😊 We hope to see them again for another occasion in the future.
