ABOUT PROJECT SELO (it means village in Ukrainian). We started our Project in October 2021 with a dream to give English language teachers in the most remote Ukrainian villages and schools a chance to practice English with native speakers, and to learn more about other countries cultures, as well as teaching techniques from the English speaking world, so that they can pass this knowledge onto their students. WE started with 4 groups (4 American volunteers, and 20 participants). By February we had over 20 volunteers and more then 130 participants from all over Ukraine. We worked in a small groups 3-5 participants for volunteer and discussed topics like "My hero", "Education in Ukraine and US", "Pets in our lives", "What is Happiness", "Ukrainian and American movie culture", etc. Then the war started... Majority of our participants work as volunteers, helping front line by making nets, cooking for soldiers, a lot relocated, some moved abroad. Some have no internet or even electricity. But we still meet twice per week and try to help each other. It's not the way we planned it, but we are trying to go on, and studies resumed in some schools, so some of our teachers back to teaching in person or online.
