Description

  • Storytelling is an effective tool to enhance foreign language skills, particularly in speaking and public presentation. It provides a rich, contextual learning environment, encouraging active language use, grammar and vocabulary growth, and strengthens listening comprehension. 
  • By incorporating storytelling into various subjects, educators help students become confident, articulate, and culturally aware communicators.

    Through storytelling techniques, educators can boost student engagement, comprehension, and retention, making learning more meaningful and fun. By aligning storytelling with EU values, students can embody inclusivity and democratic principles in daily life. 

  • This seven-day course aims to improve English fluency and empower educators to use storytelling effectively in their personal and professional lives. Led by an award-winning storytelling expert, the course combines  workshops and practical exercises to explore storytelling as a tool for creativity, connection and growth.
