What teachers said about this workshop:
"I loved the practical examples, videos and interactions with the students that we can take forward in our practices."
"Evidence-based and practical. I took so much away from this, and it made me reflect on my teaching practices. I will be implementing many of the ideas covered. Loved the science behind it and the practical applications."
"I really loved the content and felt it was delivered in a very clear way, and I have already started implementing it in the classroom. Thank you so much for sharing the slides and resources, too. Would definitely recommend!"
