Title: What makes learning ’21st century learning’?
Blurb: The expression ‘21st century learning’ is used more and more in language teaching, but do we really know what it means? Do students learn differently? Are the things we teach different?

He is an experienced EFL teacher, teacher trainer, academic and business manager. Peter ran his own language school in Hungary before moving to the United Kingdom where he has held various teaching and academic management positions in language schools. Recently, he also added study travel to his skill set bringing his extensive knowledge of the international junior EFL markets to those who find study holidays and learning English where it is spoken as exciting as he does.
Title: A life shaping experience — opportunities for junior language travel
Blurb: Most countries in Central and Eastern Europe are well behind their Western or Southern counterparts in discovering the opportunities language travel holds. Yet, the numbers of students taking language holidays is slowly but steadily rising. As children returning from language courses abroad spread the word, friends and their parents need expert counsel, which is what Converzum — the language travel expert provides in Hungary and regionally. This presentation will focus on English language travel opportunities for children under 18. It will look at features of packages, destination choices, what makes a programme stand out, how children benefit, and the most frequent questions parents, teachers and children tend to ask when considering booking a language holiday.
