Russian delegation visits the Bronx


Hello! My name is Nikita V. Yakovlev. I came from the Russian Federation as a participant of the Fulbright program for Russian International Educational Administrators. Our group had a wonderful experience during this program – we have learned a lot about education in USA, cultural differences, people. We also tried to give information about our country during meetings and visits.

One day we visited a high school in Bronx, NY. It was a wonderful opportunity as for us and for the children: to meet us face to face and to use the opportunity to ask different questions and get a response. I understood that these children are really interested what is going on in the world in other countries.

Hopefully, our conversations helped children to get a prospective of importance of international education .

I`d like to thank Metro International Organization with Global Classroom program for this wonderful opportunity. Now I can tell my kids and their friends about my school visit in the USA and, who knows, maybe they will be friends in future!
