Marcel Toussaint
Initiator 1 for All
"My believe is that students, teachers and schools need to work together and connect globally, with the main question: “what can we learn from each other”?"
Erik Deuling
Teacher and Team member 1 for All
"As a passionate teacher of mechanical engineering with an educational master's degree, I contribute to curriculum development. I take my role when it comes to the development of teaching materials. One for All gives me enery because I can practice my profession together with colleagues from all over the world. Together in this way we make our world and that of the students a little more beautiful."
Tom Bouma
Team member 1 for All
"I am a seasoned SME consultant and (higher) VET teacher. In het early 2000’s I met Marcel Toussaint and discovered our shared passion for the best possible, highest impact, most fun education, also for those without a natural talent for school benches. This led to the establishment and flourishing of the Blue Elephant Foundation. 1 for All Education feels like a natural successor where we can take the earlier lessons learned further. I am happy to contribute to this as a team member and (indirectly) have some impact of the careers of our future professionals."
Els Wester
Projectleader, specialized in Eurpean programs
"From 1980 onwards I have worked with European programs. Started with the PETRA program, followed by Leonardo and at the moment Erasmus and Erasmus+ programs. I have a lot of experience with leading, monitoring, guiding and reporting the European projects. I have worked for more than 20 years in vocational education. My aim is to get the best out of at all the students and to prepare them for a dynamic and flexible career market and give them the necessary tools to work together with people all over the world."
Pieter van Tartwijk
Teacher and coach
"As a former airplane engineer with the Royal Navy I have decided that I would like to pass on my expertise and knowledge to the younger generation. Since I enjoy working with youngsters and my background in construction, a job as a teacher was evident. Teaching and forming teamspirit at the same time is one of my competences. By setting boundaries in a loving but clear way with understanding for individual needs. Enhancing a students' self awareness and self esteem allows students to grow beyond their imagination. To witness this and be a part of the 1 for all team that enables me to follow my needs makes me both proud and happy."
Lisa Cherivtch
Distinguished Professor of Business
'As a Professor of Business, I've dedicated my career to breaking down borders in education. Through global learning initiatives, virtual exchange programs, and innovative teaching methods such as gamification, I've seen firsthand how connecting students across cultures builds their confidence and prepares them for our interconnected world. 1 for All embodies what I believe most deeply: that when students and educators collaborate globally, asking 'what can we learn from each other?', we create experiences that expand possibilities and open doors students never knew existed. I'm honored to contribute to a foundation that makes international collaboration accessible and impactful for the next generation of global citizens.'
