Erasmus Learning Academy Reviews 

It was a valuable professional development experience I have had participating in the training course in Greece. During this course, I explored a wide range of AI-powered applications and digital tools designed to support teaching and learning.
The training gave me practical experience in creating interactive and engaging educational materials, such as quizzes, presentations, digital worksheets, and multimedia activities. I also learned how to use AI tools to save time when preparing lessons while making classroom activities more creative and personalized for students.
This experience has strengthened my digital skills and inspired me to continue exploring innovative ways to enhance learning through technology.

I chose this Erasmus+ course because it was advertised as focusing on CLIL methodology, particularly lesson planning. While some CLIL sessions were useful, the overall programme did not match the advertised content. Too much time was devoted to ICT tools, AI, and gamification, while important topics such as CLIL assessment and the exchange of good practices were largely overlooked.
The preparation phase was also disappointing. Communication was sometimes slow, and I received incomplete and outdated documentation for my Learning Agreement, which required additional emails and extra work on my part.
One activity in particular—the creation of a digital escape room—had great potential but was presented so quickly that it was impossible to learn how to use the tool effectively. It would have been better to spend more time on this practical activity instead of introducing several different tools.
The course also ended on Friday instead of Saturday morning as originally communicated. Since I had organised my flights based on the published timetable, this resulted in unnecessary extra travel costs. Finally, I was surprised to receive an email explicitly asking participants to leave a five-star review. Inviting participants to leave feedback is perfectly acceptable, but asking for a specific rating is, in my opinion, inappropriate because reviews should reflect each participant's genuine experience.

The experience at the Erasmus Learning Academy was fantastic. The walks in incredible locations, combined with the planned activities, provided truly enriching moments and meaningful learning experiences that contributed to my professional development. The methodology—grounded in hands-on experience and the sharing of ideas—made every activity even more memorable.

It was an outstanding learning experience. Everything was exceptionally well organized, and the trainer was highly knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and always ready to accommodate participants' needs. The activities were carefully planned, engaging, and delivered with a high degree of flexibility, making the overall experience both enjoyable and highly beneficial.

I’ve had a good experience; there’s been a really good atmosphere amongst the participants.

My experience was extremely positive. The workshops on multiculturalism in secondary education were very practical and insightful. Furthermore, the cultural activities and city tours in Palermo allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the local culture and connect with other students. I have no negative aspects to highlight; the organization and learning outcomes exceeded my expectations

Participating in this course was much more than a professional development opportunity. It was a journey of learning, sharing, and personal growth that reminded me of the true value of European cooperation in education.

Throughout the week, I had the privilege of meeting inspiring educators from different countries, cultures, and educational contexts. Despite our differences, we shared a common goal: to provide better learning opportunities for our students and to prepare them for an increasingly interconnected world.

The course challenged me to reflect on my own teaching practices, discover innovative approaches, and explore new tools that I am eager to bring back to my school. Beyond the knowledge acquired, what I value most are the ideas exchanged, the meaningful conversations, and the professional connections that were created.

As a teacher and educational leader at the Agrupamento de Escolas Daniel Faria, in Portugal, I believe that international experiences such as this are essential for fostering innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement in education. The insights gained during this mobility will not only enrich my own professional practice but will also be shared with colleagues and students, multiplying the impact of this experience within our school community.

Palermo, its culture, and the welcoming atmosphere created by the trainers and participants made this experience truly memorable. I return home feeling motivated, inspired, and more confident to embrace new challenges and contribute to building a more inclusive, creative, and European-minded education.

Erasmus+ reminds us that learning has no borders, and that together we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of our students.

Dynamic, well-structured classes. Effective collaboration among classmates. The instructor uses an effective teaching methodology and demonstrates an empathetic attitude, fostering collaboration and constructive thinking.

It was fab, both for the content and the trainer's skills and for the amazing group I was part of. It was also enriching and fun on many occasions. As for the accommodation, it was more than fine except for the food.

The yoga teacher was awesome!!! The town was great with lots of nice shops and good restaurants. Although I’d choose another hotel that has both AC and better classrooms for the purpose of the course, the over all experience was magical

Every participant was pro-active and participative.
Safe atmosphere and good energy from everyone.
Teacher empathic, professional, and full of kindness.
We share time and experiences together, but more than all, we share good vibes, kindness, respect, and lot of fun !!

My experience with Erasmus Learning Academy was excellent from beginning to end. Everything was very well organised and the communication was clear, professional and efficient. The course was highly relevant, interesting and enriching, both professionally and personally. The trainers were knowledgeable, supportive and engaging, and the activities were well planned and meaningful. I particularly appreciated the welcoming atmosphere and the excellent organisation throughout the entire experience. I would highly recommend Erasmus Learning Academy to anyone looking for a high-quality, well-organised and enriching learning experience.

It was a very great experiance, well motivated people, very good course, I've learned a lot, all things were optimal organized. Many thanks to all of you from ELA :-)

Good ideas for healthy practices and good empathy in our group!

The AI course was well organised, with an interesting programme and highly dedicated, approachable instructors who created an excellent learning experience. However, the classroom facilities were in poor condition and even had cockroaches. The mandatory hotel accommodation did not meet acceptable standards, with outdated rooms, poor cleanliness, excessive noise, and disappointing breakfast quality. Considering the price charged, the accommodation represented poor value for money. Overall, while the academic quality of the course was excellent, the facilities and accommodation require significant improvement.

The people facilitating the training are very friendly and professional.
The experience was excellent, as the training activities were engaging and led to valuable learning.
The chosen location (Tenerife) is great.

An impeccable educational experience with a teacher who used well-prepared and very practical classroom activities.

Taking part in this course was an absolute pleasure. Jorge is an exceptional trainer who combines great professionalism with an amazing sense of humor; he really knows how to engage participants and create a relaxed, inspiring working environment. Excellent materials, flawless organization, and great support for our Erasmus+ project. I truly hope to attend another course with ELA in the future! Thank you for everything!

The course was well-structured and our teacher (Martina) was patient and helpful. I recommend the course "Preventing conflicts and tackling early school leaving" to all teachers interested in the topic.

Probably the best experience of my whole life. The location was like heaven, the board and lodging were simply perfect, the teacher and the course were amazing in every single detail. The maximum number of participants kept low made the work fulfilling. The whole organisation before and after the week in Tenerife was stunning. The afternoon excursions in the nearby were the cherry on the cake! Five stars isn't even enough!
