Mrs. Elena (72) has attended the first five lessons of Grandparents on the Internet at the Piazza Matteoti Post Office in Naples.
On the telephone with Cecilia Stajano [@CStajano], the local project coordinator, Elena does not hide her enthusiasm for the experience she though would have been different… She didn’t believe that she would learn how to use a computer so quickly, nor did she imagine that she could easily relate to such young students acting as teachers!
Now, instead, Elena says, “We have become a team!”
The tutors are mostly new graduates from ITIS Galileo Ferraris in Scampia. They know what they are doing and have a good relationship with the elders. Once again, this is the image of Scampia – solidarity, values and quality – that we have been promoting. And amongst the tutors, there also is Lorenzo Dente YouthSpark Star, thanks to Project Meet No Neet.
After the first five lessons in July, the “Grandparents on the Internet at the Post Office” will continue in September and end on October 1, completing the 15-lesson track dedicated to over-sixties.
