We’re currentlu 12 students from a foreign language school in Lovech , Bulgaria! Our target is to popularize the Bulgarian culture and show our beauty to the world!
We’re interested in culturally significant facts or events from other countries to compare!
We are students from 9e class intensive study English course! We are the founders of “Unique Culture group”! We participate in the European project “IACT”!The project “IACT” is introduced in our school curriculum.The upper secondary school for foreign languages “Exzarh Yosiff I”, a descendant of the first language school in Bulgaria teaches 900 students (13-19 years old) – 20 classes for intensive studying of German, 10 classes for English and 5 classes for French in a 5-year educational course. The pedagogical staff, 73 in number, is paying special attention to students’ activities beyond the classroom: participation in contests, acquiring German Sprachdiplom, publishing the school newspaper, doing research and making use of ICT technologies.Science acquisition is demonstrated in the yearly National Olympiad on mathematics and Computer technologies, organized in the school.Biology, Geography and History are taught in foreign languages during the 2nd and 3rd year of the 5-year educational course, while Civilization, Ecology and Business studies are introduced as special subjects by teachers, participating in LLP integrating interdisciplinary approach.Native British, American, German and French teachers have boosted language acquisition and raised cultural awareness. Two school groups participated in the Competition “50 Years Europe” and the highest prize in forensics at the National Day of Key Competencies was rewarded to a student from our school.Learning is fostered by partnerships with German schools, exchanged cooperation with Austrian and Belgium schools, implementation of project-based teaching methods by participating in Comenius programmes and eTwinning.
