Buenos Dias !

Guest in Class

In this class room series, guests are invited to class, who interact with the students on a variety of subjects. The idea is to motivate the students, provide them a platform for interaction and of course, widen their vistas relating to language learning, its applications and cultures.

Session with Ms. Maria Campo Cuesto- 4th July 2009
Written By Aniket Bhatkhande, FYBA, (Compulsory French class)Submitted on 13 July 2009

On 4th of July we had the first session of “Guest in Class” and we had the opportunity to interact with Ms. Maria Campo Cuesto- A Spanish teacher in India. The experience was extremely informative and useful for all of us.
It provided us insight into life in Europe. Spain being a neighbour of France the professor pointed out numerous similarities in the lifestyles of the countries.Ms. Maria hailed from Spain but she had travelled to many different countries. She knew a lot about different cultures, languages and people and was very approachable.
We as students were curious to know about different festivals, food and places of interest in her home country and she gladly answered all our questions.She also gave us a new outlook about Indians and told us how it is easier for us to learn new languages than most peole around the world because of the numerous languages we speak in our country.The session was very helpful and everybody is excited about the next session. Watch this space for more !!
