Why did we design this workshop?

As we embrace new pedagogical approaches, it’s clear that effective teaching today goes beyond content delivery; it requires educators to build strong learning partnerships with students.

This workshop is designed to equip teachers with the tools they need to take on these evolving roles, focusing on self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and systems thinking.

Overall, this experiential workshop aims to develop reflective coaching skills and strengthen educators' ability to adapt to the evolving educational landscape, enhancing both their craft and their school’s learning environment.
