Puntapié inicial


Todo comienza con un grupo de profes de inglés que pensamos en brindar distintas maneras de aprender idiomas a través de la interacción intercultural. Se nos ocurrió que una buena manera puede ser generar espacios para que la historia del lugar donde vivimos pueda ser compartida y revivida expresada por medio de otro idioma y por lo tanto 'vista' con otros ojos.

El punto de partida de "New City Eyes" no es el de un guía turística por la ciudad, sino que está pensado como una propuesta pedagógica donde todos los participantes pueden aportar sus conocimientos y recuerdos, y también debatir diferentes miradas y opiniones.

Hasta ahora ha sido una experiencia muy gratificante, espero que sigamos viendo a La Plata a través de muchos ojos más.

Nos vemos entre los tilos,
