Face to face learning opportunities

Language across the curriculum, and integrated language and content learning, are core to the pedagogical stance of my work. Language capability offers learners learning depth and breadth. Waves of knowledge building, carried through the lens of language, opens up text as meaning-making powerhouses. Scaffolding teachers to implement transformational pedagogy, where language in abundance stimulates and expand learners’ cognitive power, is at the heart of my work.
