Delia,an English Teacher from the Liceul Tehnologic Constantin Ianculescu – implements the Talent Maker project in a small school in Cârecea, where 10% of her primary school pupils are represented by the Roma community. Talent Maker turned around her way of teaching as it allows her children to feel part of something by recognising their potential and, therefore, their capability.

“When God made us, made us part of a huge world. Talent Maker, actually, gives you the opportunity to be able to say: This is my place in the world. This is what I am good at.”
