LEARNÂ STORYTELLING
Workshops in Oral Storytelling for Grown-ups
We offer workshops to promote learning and practice of oral storytelling.
At the moment, we have the following offerings.
​'Teachers Telling Tales' is an immersive workshop series for teachers, and educators, who wish to use stories in schools.
Note 1 - These are virtual workshops for groups. For large groups or personalised learning needs, kindly write to us.
As the word 'storytelling' is popularly used to mean many things (fairytales, marketing, cinema, literature, public speaking), it is common for people to feel quite excited or confused about what exactly are we offering. It's important to build a shared understanding of what we consider 'stories', 'storytelling' and 'storytellers'.
We offer a virtual hour long group Orientation - 'why' and 'how' of storytelling for teachers and parents. If you are a passionate teacher/parent, school or organisation, collaborate with us to organise this.
TEACHERS TELLING TALES
A six month workshop series for teachers and educators
How can we use stories in schools beyond the moralizing and memorizing that we are used to?
Storytelling has been found to support learning and socio-emotional well being of students, as well as teachers. This workshop series is informed by action research work done with teachers in India to explore how storytelling is presently and how can teachers learn and practice more.
Drawing from research and experiential knowledge of working with children and adolescents, this workshop enables teachers, young and old, to re-examine their pedagogical beliefs and learn innovative practices related to stories and storytelling. .
This workshop is offered in two languages (Hindi, English) in two separate batches. There is a special batch for pre-school teachers and early childhood educators.
Next workshop is scheduled from February, 2025.
