    Fun and Creative Language Workshops to Improve Public Speaking, Presentation, Spontaneity, Acting

    I use Improv Theater to help people develop better public speaking, spontaneity, creativity, team-work, and leadership.
    Improvisational Theater is the art of theater performance where there are no scripts and where everything--characters, setting, and plot, is created spontaneously and based on the suggestion of the audience.

    It is used in universities and second-language learning centers, also widely used in global companies such as Google, Disney, and startup companies in Silicon Valley.

    In a workshop we will be using exercises from Improv Theater to improve the student's confidence, quick-thinking, and command of the English language in a fun and engaging way.

    - This class is best experienced with at least 4 students in a class

    English, mathematics and general school support from Primary to High School
    Using my experience as a student, I first teach the vocabulary that will later be memorized through different exercises, both written and oral. This is how grammar will also be implemented. We will try to liven up the classes with short videos and songs from time to time, as I think they are a good tool to improve oral comprehension. If parents prefer to focus on general school support, we will work on the most difficult subjects, trying to give some time to each one, in a pedagogical and calm way.
