“The organisation in the end is all worth if the kids enjoy themselves AND get something out of it – two things you have certainly achieved!
I am, and have been for years, a supporter of ‘not wholly conventional teaching methods’ – such as music-cloze exercises, story-telling (reading a story out loud) with post story ‘forums’ – but it’s not easy within our archaic and sclerotic system.
Since my students have asked me to ‘follow up’ on your show – I have an ‘excuse’ to do some more “RoadShow exercises”! (one of my classes has already asked for the list of songs you used during the show, which means they’ll be humming them along for a bit – and even humming in English is a good thing!)” Prof. Carlo Ferrigno

“Dear Fergal, First of all my compliments for your show, it was really great: entertaining, involving and funny. My students thoroughly enjoyed it, and also learnt a lot. Today in class they were enthusiastic about it, and I think this is comforting feedback for you. It also is the demonstration that motivation is the only engine that can activate learning. To think of all the tough work we have to make them remember maybe ten new words, and yesterday they sang by heart at least ten whole songs without any effort!
I hope to organize something next year, best wishes (and always Forza Napoli!!)”
