"Our fellow workshop participants were educators, artists, and entrepreneurs from a variety of backgrounds in Asia and Oceania, lead by Kirpal Singh. For me it was very valuable to explore creative strategies to review and learn more about how I can use art, story telling, drama, and mind mapping inside and outside the classroom. In addition, it was so refreshing to share positive energy with colleagues who are honest in a trusted environment. The techniques that we applied above were strong reminders for me as well to urgently reconsider creative methods and strategies in order to generate a more positive learning environment for our students and faculty. These strategies also helped me look the Center for English Education and Development differently and now I am implementing creative ways of working there despite the challenges."
