Teachers of all experience levels from seasoned educators to novice instructors are welcomed. Led by Cantonese writer Peg Chiu, the workshop delves into effective teaching methodologies, storytelling, and interactive activities through her book “The Tiger Under the Bridge”. Participants will have the opportunity to collaborate with fellow educators, exchange ideas, and leave with a toolkit of some teaching resources. Light refreshments will be provided.
