How everything began…<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>I already became acutely aware of the importance of a knowledge of a foreign language at the end of the war. This allowed me to explain to an American soldier the nightly occurrences in our house and as a result he came to sleep on the staircase every evening and the plunderers ceased to visit. I also worked for the British troops as an interpreter and even at that time I was determined that: „If I have children, they should learn foreign languages in their infancy.“<\/p>\n
Subsequently, I went to the America House, where I assumed responsibility for the children’s library and headed English courses for infants. In addition, I started working with children aged under six from my private circle of friends using a large number of play ideas. Then, when the America House stopped its work with children, my idea turned into reality and I started to build up my English Playschool. I received a great deal of help from the America House, which left me all its English teaching material. I began with seven children belonging to friends and acquaintances and after a year, already had twenty charges. This marked the start of an extremely pleasant process, which we were able to realise in a team possessed of a great deal of idealism and methodological expertise. My special thanks are also due to the parents, who through their understanding support and loyalty repeatedly gave me fresh courage to carry on.<\/p>\n
