Fears and Mistakes

This energetic, highly interactive and fun-filled workshop aims at tackling fears and mistakes from the teachers’ side. Through a series of improv games, you will get out of your comfort zone, and learn to see mistakes as part of learning and becoming better. By allowing yourself to fail and make mistakes, you return to your classes more empathetic and better equipped at helping your students at learning and embracing their own mistakes.
