Introduction to the Dutch education system, mentorship and good practices (secondary and upper secondary) – inglise keeles
Within three trainings Suzanne Sassen will explain the Dutch education system and give examples of good practices. Subjects that will be discussed are the program of exams, profile choices, mentorship and method, pupil and learning process, triangle conversations with student and parents and transitional meetings.

Suzanne Sassen is from the Netherlands. She is an art teacher in secondary and upper secondary education for seven years. She works at Liemers College in Zevenaar, a small town close to the German border. She got a certificate in Fine Arts and my teacher degree in Fine Arts and Design. For five years she is a mentor for students in the age of 14 to 18 years old. Also I am responsible for the international program for our school. I am interested in other education systems and good practices. For me education is a universal languages which we should share more often. I hope my webinars will bring some inspiration for the future.
