Storytelling the hand drawn way! Using my visual vcoabulary to add meaning and magic to story telling in the English language classroom.
I was asked to explain the term ‘Graphic Facilitation’ at the ELT Freelancers Awayday. I couldn’t make it in person, so I made this video.
Chatting to Laura Wilkes about how to use graphic facilitation skills for a positive impact on learning. I also share some simple doodles and activities that any English language teacher can use.
