Session - Perception & Communication Workshop
Trainer - Neelam Agarwal
Teachers - 40
Students - 55

Sleepwell Foundation conducted a Workshop on Perception & Communication for Teachers and Students of Gyan Kunj Public School to skill each of these segments with tools necessary to make teaching and learning an effective and enjoyable experience.

The workshop was conducted in two sessions — one for the teachers and the other for the students.

Parents often perceive schools as the sole educator of their children. In schools, communication by the teacher is the main source to impart education and also to foster a good relationship with students that enhances the effectiveness of the school. It is therefore critical for teachers to be good communicators.

With this workshop the teachers found an opportunity to empower themselves to become better communicators to further the goal of imparting effective learning.

The students benefited from this workshop as they too equipped themselves with a skill that has life-long application in every sphere of living.
