Our facilitators are highly-passionate about what they do and are trained extensively on modern methodologies, such as student-centered, project-based, and inquiry-based learning. They all have a wealth of experience teaching around the world and on various digital platforms. They deliver their lessons in a way that is friendly, inspiring, and unique to their personality. We strive to ensure that learners come away from the lesson feeling empowered to put their best foot forward in every aspect of their lives.
