JOB SWAP CONTINUED
Monday October 12 Michael Parrish, the third grade teacher at PS 89 in New York, arrived in Amsterdam for the second part of his Job Swap with Alex Bakker. Alex is teacher and adjunct-director at the 'Amstelmeerschool' in Amsterdam Noord. Michael is the last one of the group of 23 Job Swappers. They all experienced for two weeks how their collegues live and work at the other side of the Ocean.
Michael will give English lessons at Alex' school and will teach his class about the history of 'New Amsterdam'.
The classes have already been 'skyping' with eachother and will keep in contact this week. A student of Michael asked at what age Alex' students in Amsterdam get boy- and girlfriends.

The Job Swap is an initiative of the Henry Hudson 400 Foundation and BKB, in cooperation with the NY400. The Wildcard contest is organized together with newspapers Het Parool (Amsterdam) and AM New York (New York).
