Voices from teff:
Symen van der Zee
Saxion University of Applied Sciences
»Education faces enormous challenges. Only by working together and learning from each other can we make our education systems future-proof.«
Wilhelm Friedrich Admiraal
OsloMet
»Too many early-career teachers quit the teaching profession because they do not feel well-prepared for their job. teff helps to combat the phenomenon of the teaching profession 'eating its young' and transforms teaching into a source of job satisfaction.«
Karen van der Eng
Utrecht University
»teff is all about learning from each other and making connections between teachers, educators and teachers in training. We need that! The world, Europe, our teachers and our pupils all need connection instead of division. Finding future proof solutions for educational challenges together with peers from all over Europe is very rewarding and I am happy to be part of this ambitious and inspiring project.«
Lotte Geunis
KU Leuven
»teff brings together people from across Europe who share a passion for education and who are open to learning from each other. I'm excited to see how our 'education for the future' will develop.«
Annette Schmehl-Postaï
Nantes Université
»Learning at school and training for the teaching profession must be based on cooperation. The aim of education today is to equip pupils with the intellectual tools and discursive skills that will enable them to become active players in the civic arena and engage in cooperative handling of common problems.«
Antti Laherto
University of Helsinki
»Europe needs teachers who not only adapt and react to changes in school and society, but who are agents in that change.«
