What are FILLUPs?

FILLUP is the abbreviation of:

  • Free (&Fun&Friendly) – Nobody pays for it, boredom is forbidden and friendliness is obvious
  • International – There are always people from all over the world
  • Language Lesson – It gives opportunity to practice English in a pleasant way
  • Unity Programme – FILLUP increases understanding between cultures

Attended by almost a hundred people, it became the only option for a fun afternoon for those who love meeting people from other countries, tasting their food and learning about their culture. Familiar atmosphere rules the gatherings, they are full of fun and non-official presentations of nations. For many it also means a great way of improving their spoken English not by the classic (boring) method, but by sharing knowledge and learning from one another.

What is going on there?

During FILLUP, one nation presents their country and culture. Not the way you are used to, but in a funny and interesting way - it is up to them whether they decide to shoot a video or play a theatre, or just make an original ppt presentation. The form does not matter too much as long as it fulfills the purpose - to inform and to entertain. National drinks and food have always been part of it, even though they are not obligatory. You do not have to be afraid that you will fall asleep while they are presenting, because one of the most important thing is to include the audience in the show! Your national dances are special? Your language is superdifficult? Some words in it have different meanings in English? Or is there any shocking fact that nobody could know? Go ahead and show it to the rest of the world!
