📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Ukrainian Catholic University (UCU), based in Lviv in one of the best humanitarian universities in Ukraine. The university was founded by Ukrainian Greek-catholic priests who came back to Ukraine after collapse of Soviet Union and years of repressions and exiles. University gives secular education following best western standards with some religious elements. University authorities pay a big attention to international cooperation and intercultural learning. Project: the annual French Summer School is an intensive French course which provides opportunities for spiritual growth, challenging work and fun. The objectives of this formation are: - to improve French language skills - to investigate teaching methods of French as a foreign language as practiced in universities and other educational establishments - to set up an exchange about French and Ukrainian cultures, as well as on the Francophone and the European construction

💼 What the programme involves

Work: teaching French. Special Orientation program will be provided in Lviv one day before the school starts, the volunteers will be lodged at UCU Residential College. We encourage the volunteers to stay for one or two days after the camp (we take care of the lodging if it’s up to 2 day) to say a proper "good-bye" to the students and do some more sightseeing in city. During the orientation program the teachers get to know each other, there’s team-building and basic instruction in the methods of teaching. The Academic Program is centered on three daily classes, two before lunch and one after. French courses will be conducted in small groups consisting of ten persons maximum. Besides regular classes we also have evening tutoring and evening activities. So, this is not just teaching, but also creating a French-speaking environment and a community of people who enjoy studying and spending time together. Detailed schedule can be send upon request.
