"The workshop really resonated with the students. You were very understandable and had a lot of patience with the students. I also noticed that you switched a few activities around based on how active the students were and if they were shy, which was really clever."

"We really enjoyed the Pick Me workshop, and I think Abbie was a fantastic host. The students ranged significantly in age and enthusiasm, but she got everyone to participate and to have some fun."

"The activity with the instructor Abbie was very fun, I really liked how she kept motivating us and how at the end everyone started participating and we started to solve every exercise faster."

"In my opinion schools should encourage such forms of learning more, especially when students are trying to become fluent in a language."
Ms Van Tendeloo

"My students became much more open to actually speaking English, while they sometimes reply in Dutch to my English questions. Others also became more active and involved. I discovered the creative side of my students."

Teacher in Ghent
"One student who didn't believe she could speak English well, gave a thank you speech directed to Abbie at the end of the workshop in fluent English. She couldn't believe it herself that she pulled that off."

"Abbie did a fabulous job of getting everyone involved, she knew how to talk to the students and correct certain behaviours without talking down to them. The pupils gave great feedback!"

"I really enjoyed working all together to solve a problem because I personally think that it brings us together as a class too. What I also really enjoyed was Abbie’s motivation to work with us and in general I thought it was a very fun activity because it was more out of the ordinary to what we usually do. So I definitely had a lot of fun and would do it again."
Mattéo | Student
"I really liked the escape room yesterday, it was a lot of fun. It was something different and the inspector played her role really well without giving too many advices when we were stuck so that we still had to think ourselves."
Mr Bouabdellaoui
Oudenaarde
"I found the workshop to be incredibly engaging, especially from a teacher's perspective. It provided a fantastic platform for students to collaborate, fostering a positive rapport among them. It was a great opportunity to enhance their speaking and listening skills. Overall, it was a highly beneficial experience both for the students' interpersonal development and their language proficiency."

Ms Lemeire
Teacher, Oudenaarde
"The Shakespeare workshop is very valuable in the sense that it allows students to step away from tests and theory and studying for a while. Instead it takes them into a different world, one of creativity and fun, one in which they dare to be open-minded towards drama in a safe and fun environment."

"I really liked yesterday's activity! Abbie was very nice and super motivated... I really had fun working together as a group! I hope we will be able to do more of these kind of activities in the future."
Lore | Student
"For me yesterday was a lot of fun, a great way to change up the lessons. It was for sure the right way to motivate students to speak English and to work as a team. I would surely welcome the idea of doing these sort of games again."
Stephany | Student
"I liked the escape room activity because I have never done an activity like that in school. The activity is also a good method to improve our English. I think we all had fun because we had to work together and I would like to do such activities more often."
Chiara | Student
"I think that the escape room was really fun. It was a well organised and we got to work as a team, which was really nice. I enjoyed it, because it was something we actually never do at school. The woman who organised the whole escape room was very friendly and made it even more fun."
Ms Van den Borre
Teacher
"I can honestly say that all my pupils really likes the workshop... I am already looking forward to working with you next year"
Ms Haeck
Teacher
"The workshops that you provided have been a delight. It has given me the opportunity as a teacher to see my students actively and enthusiastically participating in an activity while speaking English outside of the classroom. They really surprised me and have proven that they can achieve a lot."
Raphael | Student
"I think the idea of the escape room in class is very original and I had never heard about that before. The game was interesting and tricky."
Charel | Student
"It was very different to the other lessons. It was fun but also a little bit tricky to find the right answer. It was also very interesting because we spoke in the group to find the answer. I would recommend it for other classes because the idea of the escape room is very original idea and nice to communicate with others in the class."
Miss Limam
Teacher
"...the students highly enjoyed the online escape room, while practising and improving their English language skills."
Ms Lapere

"My classes get to know things about English culture in an interactive and fun way. Some students interact a lot more than they do in class."
Leandro | Student
"We were all a bit shy in the beginning but after a few minutes we all started talking to each other and it was also a cool group activity that made us work with each other very well. The instructor was a very nice person that made the activity even more fun and she was very motivated"

"I think the two lessons yesterday were very nice and interesting. It brought variety into class and it was cool to work as a team"
