Workshops
Are your students grappling with confidence issues or succumbing to nerves when faced with presentations? Do interpersonal conflicts regularly disrupt your classroom dynamics? Harnessing theatre techniques within an educational setting can offer transformative solutions. Drawing upon my extensive background in theatre, I've adapted the proven methods used by theatre teachers and directors to empower actors on stage, seamlessly integrating them into classroom environments. By enhancing public speaking prowess and fostering a sense of camaraderie, students are emboldened to articulate their thoughts and explore beyond their comfort zones—not just in the realms of math, science, or art, but across all subjects and age groups. Tailored to suit your unique classroom requirements, my approach is versatile and adaptable. With over two decades of experience in the theatre world and several years of experience in the classroom, I've merged my twin passions of theatre and teaching to offer educators invaluable tools for nurturing their students' voices.
