TEACHING METHODOLOGY
We believe that you begin teaching from the moment you enter our shala. We aim for the lessons to be confidence-building and progressive. You’ll start with one-to-one lessons and gradually moving to bigger groups of students, eventually, you’ll be delivering. Through regular feedback from teachers and fellow students, you’ll improve with practice—gradually finding your unique voice and style as a teacher.
