"This was my first experience in a learning circle and it was very rewarding. My students and I loved learning about other cultures around the world. We loved the opening of the learning circle and using the forums for students to have an opportunity to speak with other students in a more casual way. I was very excited to see my students completed work and for them to be able to access their work from any internet connection. I am grateful to everyone who helped make my experience with learning circles a positive one. I look forward to my future involvement in more learning circles." - Sonya

"We are from Ukraine, from Sevastopol Gymnasium #24. Our students are 15/16 years old. They worked hard and did their best to create their stories. They have learned a lot about different countries and about great people. They have come to know that though people and countries are different we all have much in common. We thank the My Hero team for help and support." - Natalia
