The English subtitles for my 2020 TEDx Creativity talk are ready.
„A maestro of "Te ilyen is tudsz" situations is Dr. Vass Vilmos. It means that he has the ability to connect with others and that his presence is safe and calming. Vilmos has understood the principles of enthusiasm, curiosity, trust, connecting power, and encouragement. The ideal basis for establishing positive and reliable relationships is the absence of negative prejudices."
Jukka Kustaa Sinnemäki, teacher, researcher
Jyväskylä Christian School, Finnish Institute for Educational Research-University of Jyväskylä
Selected among the 75 most progressive thinkers and doers in the field of learning and from key disciplines that centre on wellbeing, winner of the World's Best Teacher Award
„Many thanks for sharing this speech; you deliver your message in very convincing and personal way about one of the most important features of key competences."
Tapio Saavala
Retired policy officer at DG Education and Culture, European Commission
„There is no precise definition of creativity - especially not a short one - but we recognise it immediately when it manifests itself. Vilmos Vass's performance is living proof of this, and his many years of experience confirm the success of his pedagogical journey. It is not only the questions that need to (or can) change: once our students have gained our courage and confidence, we can also produce constantly renewed, divergent answers to the familiar questions.
An anecdote has it that Albert Einstein was about to write his final thesis at Oxford University with his physics students. His teacher's assistant was carefully compiling the papers when he noticed that they contained the same questions as the previous year. He immediately pointed them out:
- Professor, these are the same questions that the class answered last year.
Einstein smiled and replied:
- Indeed, but the answers have changed since then." Dr. Tamás Stonawski PhD, college associate professor University of Nyíregyháza
