Buzzing Classrooms at St. Alousius School, Mangalore

TTF organized Buzzing Classroom for 27 teachers from St. Alousius School, Mangalore on 24 October 2009. Mr. Mahesh and Ms. Arathi Patarame, TTF Facilitators delivered the one day workshop. The workshop focused on making classroom interactions lively and interesting and introduced the teachers to a series of activity based teaching techniques. The workshop drew their attention to how to start, deliver and conclude a 40 minute lesson effectively and engaging every child in the class.
