March, 11 – Master’s students of Pedagogical Institute Ecol Normal Superieure in Lyon visited the faculty of Humanities. The visit was co-organized with the Nizhny Novgorod office of Alliance Française and its head Sophie Gindt. At home, in France, Nina and Mannu are getting prepared for their final exams to become teachers of French for children of 3 – 10 years old. In Nizhny Novgorod the students had a 4-week internship teaching French at local schools.

Our students of the foreign languages department have just started learning the second foreign language, but still everyone managed to take part in the conversation. The atmosphere was appropriate and favourable for that: tea, sweets and mutual interest to each other could not but help build the bridges. Our students asked about their peers’ life, studies and activities in France. Nina and Mannu showed the photos of Lyon’s sites and expressed their emotions after working as teachers in Russia. The girls admitted that they really liked it in Nizhny.
