Dear Vojtech,

Thank you for sharing your experiences; often people don't because writing a report is a lot of work.

If I understand it right, the key for learner's retention is: enough time and good teaching aids. I remember that WMDE in its 2011-2013 education programme did not provide teaching aids, and it did not want to invest more than three afternoons in senior citizens.

Please correct me if I got something wrong.

Kind regards
Ziko

I like how you thought out of the box in terms of advertising and the idea of the project in general. Your post taught me a lot :D

Bravo, Vojtěch! :)

Thank you for sharing your experiences and your learnings on the Wikimedia blog. 

It's exciting to see these successes with seniors in the Czech Republic. 

Looking forward to seeing how the program develops, grows, and hopefully inspires others!

Anna :)
