"As European Commissioner for Education, Culture, Multilingualism and Youth, I welcome your new site. The aim of this site is to become the voice of many language teachers in Europe. It is indeed a noble and needed goal. Language teachers have a central role to play in building a multilingual and multicultural Europe. More than teachers of other subjects, they are called upon to exemplify the European values of openness to others, tolerance of differences, and willingness to communicate."

In collaboration with the Centre for Polish Language and Culture in the World, Jagiellonian University, Krakow; the next REAL seminar took place in Poland from 18-21 August 2010 in the historic city of Krakow. Over 80 delegates from fifteen different European countries came together over four days to exchange on issues regarding motivation, creativity and innovation.
