In this episode, we discuss Portuguese public schools through the eyes of students. Together with our guest, Maksim, who moved to Portugal from Ukraine in 2022 when the war began, we talk about what awaits children in the new learning environment.
In this episode, we address questions such as:
✅ What is it like to study in a Portuguese public school?
✅ Was it scary to arrive in a new country and start learning the language from scratch?
✅ How do students adapt to a new linguistic environment?
✅ Is there homework, and are grades assigned?
✅ How do teachers treat the students? Do they scold them for mistakes?
✅ Is it easy to make friends in a new school?
✅ How many classes and breaks are there per day?
✅ What clubs and extracurricular activities are available?
✅ How is the school day organized: what time does school start and end?
Maksim will share his personal experience of studying in a public school in Alcabideç. This candid conversation about challenges, fears, and successes will be valuable for parents and children preparing for a move or already facing adaptation in a new country.
