Project Report | Oct 28, 2016
Summer Academy 2016 report

By Anjela Deyanska | Development Manager

On August 12th, the “Festival of Success” officially marked the successful completion of the sixth annual “Summer Academy” with a students’ showcase of their diverse projects in front of parents and teachers.

The annual “Summer Academy” is free and it is designed for students, grades 1 through 12. It aims to increase students’ readiness and knowledge in the subject matters taught at school and to increase their motivation and desire to learn. Classes were led by aspiring teachers from a variety of backgrounds, who were eager to prove to the children that studying could be both interesting and fun. Due to the Academy’s growing popularity amongst parents and students, for the first time ever we extended it to two schools in Sofia –  144th school in Mladost and 96th  school in Lyulin.

The Academy also marked the end of the intensive summer training of the 120 incoming teachers, entering the Teach For Bulgaria (TFB) program this year. Following their pedagogy training at Plovdiv University, the incoming cohort of teachers embarked on a five-week intensive training program, including methodological and practical preparation and classroom practice.

On September 15th, over 160 Teach For Bulgaria teachers entered classrooms located in ten regions of Bulgaria– Vratsa, Lovech, Montana, Pazardzhik, Pernik, Plovdiv, Razgrad, Sofia-city, Sofia-area and Stara Zagora. Teach For Bulgaria will continue to train the teachers on an ongoing basis throughout the duration of their two-year teaching period and support their professional development in the education sector and beyond.
