  • Young Reporter - Rhine and Moselle

    The concept of this course is to place the student in the role of a reporter and is linked closely to GCSE methodology. ‘Young Reporters' work in small teams to research a theme before they conduct interviews with local people, all material is then reviewed and the best interviews played and discussed back at the hotel. The final report can take a variety of forms reflecting both the aims of the individual teams and their linguistic ability e.g. advanced level students could aim to produce a report in the style of a newspaper or magazine article. 

    This course includes pre-interview preparation from a Travelbound representative, a comprehensive teacher's guide on a CD ROM, 1 Dictaphone and clipboard per every 5 students and a certificate of completion.
