EVA TOTH: la nostra prof a distanza

Eva Toth è una docente di lingua inglese, in servizio presso la Nagykáta Ipari Szakköpiskola és Szakiskola, a pochi chilometri da Budapest, ambasciatrice eTwinning per l’Ungheria e animatrice digitale. Con lei abbiamo portato avanti ben tre progetti: “Addicted to technology”, “Beautylicious” e “Sound Mind in a Sound Body”. Con quest’ultimo ci siamo aggiudicati l’European Quality Label. Proprio in questi giorni un altro riconoscimento per questo progetto da parte di un’associazione di docenti di lingua inglese ungherese. La consideriamo ormai “una dei nostri” perché la professoressa Toth, anche se a distanza, è infatti per noi una preziosa presenza e un vulcano di idee. Neo-mamma di una bellissima bambina, l’abbiamo contattata per porgerle i nostri più cari auguri. Ne abbiamo approfittato anche per congratularci per quest’altro premio e farle qualche domanda che qui riportiamo.
How long have you been working with eTwinning and what does this community represent for you?
I have been a member for 5 years now, in this community I feel that I am surrounded by like-minded colleagues. Apart from projects, eTwinning contributes to my life long learning via events and workshops.
What are the benefits of this kind of projects?
There are many 21st century learning skills involved in the project, such as critical thinking, problem solving, communication and collaboration, ICT and real life skills.
What is your last prize about?
It’s given each year by the Hungarian association of language teachers. It is based on different topics, this year’s “collaboration”. So I thank you for your precious contribution!
Can we ask you how do you feel working with Italian partners?
I am very lucky to have found Maria Elena, her colleagues and her students as sometimes it is difficult to find partners who are as motivated as you. I like working with her and we can say that we are friends not just colleagues.
A last question: what are your plans for the future and what about meeting concretely?
I am on maternity leave now but I am in touch with Maria Elena, I follow your blog and your activities in general and we will surely work together in the future too. I’ve already been to Italy for a eTwinning conference in Rome. I love your Country. Yes, we will!
