Our Building Bridges project wants to double next school year. After a successful first pilot year, the schools are eager to expand the cooperation.

“Although the practicalities are sometimes a bit of a challenge, the final outcome is more than rewarding.”  quotes one of the teachers. The biggest attraction is the contact with kids of the same age in another country. “I like the fact that you can choose your country, so you can go for the atmosphere that fits your kids.” Making the videos was also a popular activity. “It’s a different kind of language learning, but because they have to be serious, as they get feedback in the group report, they tend to be very actively involved.”

Registration for the new Building Bridges group starts on Thursday 20 June. The actual Building Bridges project begins in October / November 2019.

"Piles and piles of exam papers are very impressive and seem endless". This is how our Anglia Exams Administrator Yvonne Gommers described the administration the Anglia exams in our Anglia20 Anniversary Magazine.

Luckily, there is always a group of Peak Team Members, helping to perzonalize all the exam papers and make sure they are ready to be shipped to the participating schools. Peak Team Member Annette has been a valued colleague for many many years. We therefore surprised her with a well deserved cake. Many thanks Annette!

Thrillers are by far the most popular book genre among the Dutch population. Thrillers are also most  read in the (western) world as a genre, especially during the summer holidays.

Every year in the month of June the Golden Noose prize is awarded to the best Dutch thriller and book stores around the country do their utmost best to create exciting displays and windows to entice people to stock up for the summer. This year Thomas Olde Heuvelt wrote the gift that all buyers get when spending over €12,50 in June on books. He is famous for Hex which was translated in several languages and won the prestigious Hugo Award in the US.

Our Skype tutorials are gaining popularity especially with children and teenagers. The main advantage choosing for this this way of learning English is that you connect with an experienced teacher from the comfort of your own home on a day and at a time that suits you best.

During the online lessons the English Academy coach will answer your questions, discuss and explain the homework and practice English listening and speaking skills with you. Before starting we will ask you about the learning objectives so we can find a suitable teacher. The English lessons will be customized to your needs and wishes. I would like more information!

“My teacher Janine has helped me feel so much more confident when speaking English. She is incredibly patient. She gives me lists of words concerning the subjects I want to talk about  in advance so I am well prepared when we connect online  .”

We will soon see the start of our social media strategy, focused on different marketing campaigns that aim to reach a wider network of individuals and possible donors. Social media campaigns have been the tool of many major charities in recent years, and it’s time for the EFKF to join the party! For now, we’re slowly building the campaigns with two types of posts per week: “Word of the Week” and “Fun Facts”. In Summer, we aim to have our first special campaign called #MyFavouriteEnglishWord.
