Testimonials

“Eugenia’s knowledge of cutting edge research on theory and pedagogy sits alongside years of practical application. She is someone of great vision, a valuable resource for others seeking excellence in the field of bilingual education.”

— Professor Viv Edwards, University Of Reading, Author & Researcher

“I met Eugenia in 2000 at a conference when she was the executive director of Play English/Bilingual School of Monza, which she had founded. Her passion for plurilingual and bilingual education was clear even in the environment of a busy conference. As I got to know Eugenia better over the years I have come to see the depth of knowledge and the quest for improvement that forms the foundation of her passion.”

— Dr Else Hamayan, Author & Researcher

“I have had the honour of working with Eugenia at her school in Milan as a workshop team presenter, facilitating the principles of inclusion with her faculty and staff. I have nothing but admiration for Eugenia as she continues her journey of inclusive education through the guardianship and education of how to empower cultural identity of students through the education of teachers and parents, in creating inclusive environments.”

— Veronica Bourke, ES Learning Support Team Leader, The International School Of Brussels

“My time in Monza stays with me always and the inspiration Eugenia provided for bilingual or even multilingual learning has strengthened my teaching from the very start. I often wonder what the children I taught are doing now. No doubt they will be thriving in Higher education settings around the world, after having gained sound foundations by attending the Bilingual School of Monza.”

— Stephanie Williams, Teacher, Dubai

“Eugenia is a highly knowledgeable expert in bilingualism and second language acquisition. Her unwavering commitment to mother-tongue instruction and multilingualism is an inspiration to all of us in the field. I feel fortunate to have collaborated with her in the past and hope to be able to do so again in the future.”
