This article describes and discusses pedagogical aspects of such projects, focusing on teaching styles and strategies developed. Nine interviews with Swedish teachers with experience of teaching in Iraqi Kurdistan were conducted. The teachers had different methods of mastering the teaching situations and three major styles were identified, referred to in this article as guide, therapeutic and Socratic.
