Many lecturers have been loyal to the adult education centre and its course participants for decades. No fewer than 8 course leaders celebrated anniversaries, big and small, at vhs Rodgau. Head of Department Stefan Jaud and the staff of vhs Rodgau thanked them - also on behalf of the participants - for their commitment with a bouquet of flowers, a certificate and a small celebration: Silvia Bernhard-Sassadeck currently offers up to 8 Spanish courses per semester, more courses than any other lecturer at vhs Rodgau. Helene Löbig is also celebrating her 35th anniversary and is delighting her loyal fan base, who have been booking the course every single semester for over 30 years, with sewing courses for soft toys and dolls. Gabriela-Carmen Lang has learnt various meditation techniques through several stays in monasteries in the south of France and has been offering ZEN meditation for beginners and advanced students as well as the "Feldenkrais" course for 30 years. Manuela Behrenbeck has been leading the very successful English courses for 25 years and organises various activities and trips with the groups. The courses are held exclusively in English. Cornelia Burkhardt celebrates her 15th anniversary. She runs the yoga and relaxation courses as well as extended weekends with yoga courses in various hotels, mainly in the Odenwald, and is a member of the Professional Association of Yoga Teachers. Ralf Stock successfully leads courses on the subject of shares and securities investment and has worked full-time in securities consulting for many years. Zivana Blagojevic has completed two different yoga teacher training programmes and offers the popular yoga courses. The third member of the 10-year anniversary group is Betty Sarabia, a native speaker who offers great Spanish courses once a term. All the lecturers were thanked from the bottom of our hearts for their many years of loyalty and great commitment.
