Am 24. Mai feierte Flying Teachers die erste "Students & Teachers Party" in Zürich-Oerlikon. Die Veranstaltung brachte SchülerInnen und Lehrpersonen zu einem Abend voller Musik, Tanz und interkulturellem Austausch zusammen. Es war eine ausgelassene Feier, die das Gemeinschaftsgefühl stärkte und den kulturellen Austausch förderte.

Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ, Αθήνα!

We are very happy to have been able to participate in the 30th annual ICClanguagesConference2024 in Greece 🇬🇷

Under the motto of "Transforming Language Education", we had an exciting exchange with European partners in lectures, workshops and talks. ICC-the International Language Association

🌟 Connecting with brilliant minds in education and immersing ourselves in the realm of AI was an exhilarating experience! 😊

We are thrilled to have had this chance to engage with inspiring educators, absorb fresh perspectives, and broaden our understanding. Let’s embark on this voyage of growth together! 🚀🌱

Special thanks to Movetia – Austausch und Mobilität for this mobility project!

From 2 – 6 April this year, a number of our team members were able to take part in a further
education programme titled Adult Education Institution Dante in the Croatian port of Rijeka.

During the five days, we were immersed in the world of learning, including interactive workshops and productive exchange with colleagues. It was a valuable opportunity to gain new perspectives, deepen our knowledge and strengthen relationships within the team. 🙌

Food for thought was complimented by dinner in a local restaurant, offering an opportunity to become personally acquainted with Dalmatian cuisine.😋

Many thanks to Movetia – Austausch und Mobilität for their support!

🌟 As part of our integration course on the topic of being "On the Move", the teacher came up with something special: an exciting city tour through Zurich! Not only were directions practiced, but also describing sights and navigating through the city. At Flying Teachers, we rely on interactive lessons and direct learning transfer - so that our students not only learn languages, but can also use them directly! 💬🌐

News on Integration 2024:

The State Secretariat for Migration (SEM) has extended the contract with Flying Teachers as sponsor for the fide office for a further four years, from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2027. This decision enables Flying Teachers to continue its valuable work in promoting language and integration.

The Integration Unit Canton Zurich (Department of Justice and the Interior, Canton Zurich) has extended course accreditation for "German for the Job Market", "German Local" and "literacy courses“ for a further four years. This extension, valid from 1 January this year through to the end of 2027, underlines the ongoing confidence the Flying Teachers courses enjoy.

These renewed accreditations and the contract extension enable us to further intensify our commitment to supporting refugees. The courses are specifically designed not only to support participants' language skills, but also to qualify them for the Swiss job market and facilitate their social integration.
The extension of the contracts and accreditations is a clear sign of confidence in the expertise and commitment of Flying Teachers. With qualified teachers and a supportive learning environment, Flying Teachers will continue to make an important contribution to social integration in the coming years.
