When you see the ISIS buildings you only can be surprised.
This is not only because of their size but because it is a beautiful building
with big windows.
The director of the school welcomes us.
We went to the teachers’ room. There I met Jean, the girl we
are going to interview. I explain a bit of our blog and which is the purpose of
it.
The looking of the School outside.
What can you tell us about the school’s History? I heard that some
years ago you made reforms...
I joined the School after
the reforms. Anyway, I have to say I don’t know a lot about the history of the
School.... I’m sorry…
One of the classes of the school
Do you remember the advice that your colleagues gave you in your
first day?
My first day was horrible. I think that literally, they gave me
the book and said “go on and teach this”. No, now seriously, this day i was
working with other teacher and she told me how to do it and she supported me as
well. It was very good.
What is going on inside an ISIS class? What methods do they use? In
other words, what are the things that make special the school?
They try to be close and communicative with the students. Also,
they try to make the students talk and voice their ideas.
They give a lot of importance to it.
For me this is perfect because I learnt like this and as a professor,
at the end, you teach in the same way you have learnt. I think this is really
good.
Also, teachers pay attention to what you do and they give you
advice in order to improve your level. At the end the language is something you
have to use... you have to read goo, write good... and if some of these things
fail it could influence in the others.
Do you receive training from ISIS?
Yes, we have like workshops and “peer reviews”. The last ones are
like an evaluation between 2 people. This is, 2 teachers look at each other and
write down the strengths and weaknesses of the other person.
I think that most of the times it is very useful to look at other
people because several times you think “oh! This is really good I am going to
do the same in my lessons”. Also, because it is someone like you, a teacher,
you don’t change your behaviour.
Reception
As a student, why do you think we should choose ISIS?
I think Isis is a centre that tries to make the lessons suitable
for the students.
The teachers help each other with the students’ doubts.
You don’t follow only a book, but you do a lot of things, things
in order to prepare an exam. So the learning you gain is more useful.
