LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HIM/HER. 1ST BACH ORAL PROJECT

Last year I asked my 1st Bach students to prepare an oral project about a person who has done something relevant to humanity, who has managed to change the lives of others for better. People who surprinsingly may have been forgotten. I remember I gave them some examples. In that case I focused on women, as we know they are pretty often the forgotten ones. The outcome of that project had some  lights and lots of  shadows  with students talking about singers,  football players and even wrestling fighters.

This year I am planning to give you the same assignment and I am bringing here what could be a good example. 

Sir Nicholas Winton who organised the rescue and passage to Britain of about 669 mostly Jewish Czechoslovakian children destined for the Nazi death camps before World War II in an operation known as the Czech Kindertransport. This video is the BBC Programme "That's Life" aired in 1988.

He met people he had saved from death when they were kids 

during  a BBC Programme

There is a biographical documentary as well. Have a look at the trailer.
