What have you learned so far at the HCAC?<\/strong><\/p>\nBy joining the program, I have learned many new words. Before coming here, I couldn’t speak English at all; thanks to the classes I attend here, now I can speak! Another thing that i have learned is how to understand people in general, my teachers as well. I have learned to love people as I get a lot of love. Also, I made a lot of new friends!<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\nWhat’s your favourite thing about going to the\u00a0HCAC?<\/strong><\/p>\nMy favourite thing about going to the HCAC is the fact that I am able to express myself, but also listen to other people (teachers, classmates). For me it is very important as I believe that the more, we speak the better we learn.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\nMaria Katsikari, teacher from Greece<\/span><\/h4>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.solidaritynow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Kavala-HCAC_Maria-Katsikari-288x300.jpg\")
<\/em><\/p>\nWhat are the Centers doing for refugee children that wasn’t being done before?<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Center provides a sense of normality and a safe space for children. Besides academic subjects and support to formal education, the children improve their life skills, build their confidence and practice their critical thinking.\u00a0<\/em>
\nDo you have an example of a child who has responded well to the teaching at the HCAC?<\/strong><\/p>\nThere is not just one example. Most of the students who are punctual and attend the courses have impressively improved not only in their academic skills but also in their interpersonal and social skills.<\/em><\/p>\n
