Teacher and youth worker – invite an expert to the students

Motivate students

The guest is a maker in his field who can show the connections between learning and future opportunities. Stories about life itself have an inspiring and valuable effect. Young people identify with them and find motivation to push forward.

A new perspective

Studies show that varied methods of teaching encourage students to learn better. Find a way to integrate guest lessons, study visits, and work and student shadowing into your classes to bring new energy to the classroom.

General competence: career and entrepreneurship

Guest lessons are one way to enhance career competencies and show you what areas of your subject will need in the future. Experts in their field come to the front of the class, who are role models for young people. Role models inspire young people to shape their own lives – to be enterprising and sympathetic.

A guest lesson is a 45-90-minute school lesson, face-to-face or virtually, where a guest lecturer talks about their specialty, profession, skills necessary in the world of work, entrepreneurship or financial wisdom.
