How he became a HY Worker:
Petr Kadlec has been involved in Healthy Youth program since the September 2012.
He used to work in geodetics which he had studied. During his studies he has got the opportunity to teach the computers and informatics at the vocational school for a year. Since then, his desire was to work with young people, maybe as a teacher. He realized that being a surveyor does not bring him any satisfaction. When hearing about a possibility to be a Healthy Youth Worker, it was clear for him. Now he is trying to reach a pedagogical education.

Feedback
“I like your personal contact with the students. Especially your attracting their interest and only than coming to the given topic.”
A teacher
“I thank you very much for your perfect program that you have had today at our school. It was about the holocaust and the anti-Semitism. I am the history teacher and I am very glad I could meet you. We could absorb many new points of view, learn new facts, and feel the great approach to students who listened very eagerly. Your program had a very good structure with a strong emphasis on the present time and personal approach of everybody. I can recommend it.”
A teacher
„Allow me to express my thanks to you for really experience-bringing programs at our school. I think that the thoughts you had expressed are useful not only for the students but for the teachers as well. I believe they would change a bit their view of the topics of love and relationships, bullying and the media. The programs seem to be very interesting for the students; you are able to attract their attention. It can be seen in their eyes as well as the quiet in the classroom while you are speaking. This quiet comes from the need to learn more and catch as much information as possible.”

What did students like about the programs:
„It was a nice and understandable presentation and explanation. The amount of information was just right.”
„It is good that you have brought a small piece of your privacy to the program. It does not make you a problem to speak about it.”
„The real discussion, nobody laughed at anybody.”
„I liked that it was not a typical ‘impersonal’ lecture. The HY Worker is really able to teach.”
„The perfect speech and the excellent presentation, personal approach, nice style of the behavior, engaging attraction of the whole class into program at all situations. The best program about the bullying I have ever heard.”
„The big respect for your patience that you can stand this kind of students as for example me and our class. If you would ever feel that it is not worth that anymore, so be sure that it is worth. I have never heard any more interesting program during the past 9 years. Much thanks for the experience you have brought into my life during your 2 programs. Thank you very much!”
