One year after, some news from Simon



Already one year has passed since our last Grundtvig Learner Workshop ‘‘Exchanging Dreams’’ . This event supported by ECORYS UK and the Lifelong Learning programme of the Lifelong Learning programme offered us the possibility to organise workshop around media for 25 people from France, Hungary, Italy, Sweden, United Kingdom.
In order to celebrate this anniversary we wanted to know the impacts that this Grundtvig Learner Workshop had on participants, in their life (personaly and professionnaly. Therefore we contact all of them and received positives testimonies.

Here is the testimony from Simon Gullberg
"For me the biggest contribution to myself has been the boost in confidence when I contemplate learning new things. I know that with just a little effort I can learn and adopt media techniques both in my personal life and professionally. The Grundtvig workshop significantly lowered the threshold for entering into these kinds of things. One little anecdote is from when I held a wedding speech to the bride and groom. I was the last one to give a speech for the night and so I had to make it the best that I could. I managed very well and made both of them cry! As well as having standing ovations for my improvised but still top-notch oration. I believe that part of my success is due to the workshop and the part where we had the opportunity to speak publicly on a radio show."
