Support for Gyoparosfürdö in Oroshaza, Hungary

Near our back office lies the thermal spa Gyoparosfürdö, the heart of this remote region in southern Hungary.

Due to mismanagement by the state, the thermal spa was driven into bankruptcy within a few months last year.

The shock was profound and the existential threat to the local population was considerable.
More than 60 people lost their jobs, over 200 families who depended on tourism had to forgo their income, and countless suppliers lost their contracts.

In an unprecedented act of solidarity, the community came together, donated money, and many craftsmen carried out repairs free of charge.
The spa was able to reopen in summer 2025.

Flying Teachers also contributed to the reopening with a donation.
In the future, the marketing department of Flying Teachers, with the support of Walter Rüegg, will assist the thermal spa and take on marketing tasks. We have prepared a marketing analysis and developed measures that we will implement together with those responsible.

If you want, I can also provide shorter, more formal, or more promotional versions.

Weihnachtsfest 2025

Mit grosser Freude durften wir auch in diesem Jahr unsere Mitarbeitenden und Lehrpersonen zu unserem Weihnachtsfest willkommen heissen. In festlicher Atmosphäre wurde gelacht, angeregt diskutiert und gemeinsam auf die Erfolge des vergangenen Jahres zurückgeblickt.

Es war ein stimmungsvoller Abend voller Begegnungen, Wertschätzung und herzlicher Gespräche, ein wunderbarer Moment, um das Jahr gemeinsam abzuschliessen und mit Vorfreude ins neue zu blicken.

Language development and teaching competencies through international educational cooperation

Flying Teachers has been commissioned by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) to implement the international project "Enhancing Language Training Capacities – Teaching of the Trainers (ToT)" in Pakistan.

The project is co-funded by the European Union and the Federal Republic of Germany and is carried out by GIZ in cooperation with the International Language Association (ICC).

This initiative sends a strong message in support of teacher training, international collaboration, and the development of sustainable educational structures in Pakistan.

The project aims to strengthen the quality of training for language teachers in Pakistan and beyond. Its focus lies on building sustainable training structures, promoting modern pedagogical standards, and further developing competencies in language education.

We look forward to supporting the implementation of this significant project and sharing exciting insights into its progress.

Stay tuned for updates on developments from Pakistan.

Successful presence at the Expat Expo in Geneva

We look back with great satisfaction on our highly successful participation at the Expat Expo in Geneva. Our booth was consistently well visited, and we were able to establish numerous valuable contacts. Interest in our programmes in the areas of language education for private learners, learning support for students, and teacher development was overwhelming.

The fair provided us with an ideal platform to engage in dialogue with the international community and to learn about individual educational needs. The personal exchanges once again showed us how important our services are for successful integration and personal development.

We are already looking forward to seeing you again at the Expat Expo in Zurich on Saturday, 22 November 2025.

Our lovely back-office team in Hungary is enjoying the sunny day with a short yoga session 😊

Good food, good vibes and great company:

Flying Teachers at the Integration Conference

On 6 May, @Damian Faeh, long-standing trainer in the SVEB-Eurolta and fide training programmes and Head of Teacher Training at Flying Teachers, led a workshop on "Expanding Intercultural Competence – Critical Incidents" at the Integration Conference.
The professionals in attendance received an introduction to Critical Incidents Analysis, a method that examines interculturally challenging situations as objectively as possible following a defined structure. This approach fosters intercultural competencies such as perspective-taking, empathy, role clarity and cultural knowledge.
During the workshop, several case studies were explored, leading to valuable insights among the participants.
We thank the organisers of the conference for the opportunity and for the smooth organisation.

The 2025 education fair at Zurich main station was a great success

Recently, our IAZH students had the opportunity to explore Zurich Airport. They were able to discover an exciting place, learn more about Swiss culture and expand their vocabulary along the way. ✈️✨

IAZH – Teachers’ meeting

Our valued IAZH teachers used the afternoon to develop creative ideas and work together on ways to further improve German lessons for refugees. 🧠💡 

In group work, teachers from different levels of the integration courses exchanged ideas, discussed playful learning approaches and provided valuable feedback on teaching materials. An inspiring exchange that strengthens our shared mission. 🤝
