IB student in Germany teaches Syrian refugees some Deutsch!


I read this article in the IB Community blog. I present Bledion's effort to organize German language courses for refugees. 
"IB student Bledion Vladi, from Accadis International School, Germany, believes the best way to integrate into a new community is to learn the language. That’s why he created Wir Lernen Deutsch (We Learn German) – a language instruction programme for Syrian refugees in Eltville city. The class meets every Saturday from 12pm to 2pm at Accadis, and is attended by 25 students aged 20 to 54. Bledion uses Passau University’s worksheets – German Courses for Foreigners. The classes have been running since September 2016 and are a huge success. Bledion received commendation from the Wiesbaden Government for his efforts.



“Considering the refugee crisis that we are having in Germany I wanted to be engaged and help these people as much as I could to integrate in our society faster – and the best way is to learn the language”, he says.
Bledion is originally from Albania and speaks his native language, as well as German, and English. “This has been one of the best experiences I’ve ever had, and I have learned a lot about being a patient, fairer and more responsible person.” "
