EAS Student Forum
I got great inspiration for my teaching. It was a really special occasion for me. (Female, CZ) I got to see how music education is working in European countries, what’s familiar with our education systems and what’s different and does that influence kids in schools. (Female, NL) It was quite overwhelming to see that much people with the same feeling for music but such different ways of teaching it. (Male, AT) I think I developed myself during these days. I got to know myself better. I am now even more open-minded and can compare my own cultural background with other ones. (Female, NL)
