Hi, I’m Donna. I’ve planned lessons for the past 30 years for Learners
aged 3 to 93

And I’m passionate about creating dynamic activities you can use to introduce new information in any language or content class.

Testimonials

I really value these kind of training sessions. Donna provided us with resources and techniques that will help us continue learning about the most effective practices.

I enjoyed the training because of the interactive, realistic examples, excellent structure and very useful, practical approach.

I didn’t expect to learn so many different methodological options to improve the engagement of my students.

We explored many bilingual perspectives in the workshop and that helped me to really understand the importance of scaffolding to begin, and reflection to end every session. They both help cognitive assimilation in any language.

We especially valued the series of sessions – workshops followed by coaching. We felt very supported this way. We could ask questions in the moment and adapt activities more effectively. I see now how my students understand new information more easily and are more motivated. What a change!

I truly believe Donna supports us from the heart. Every detail was completely thought out and she kept repeating phrases that helped us to feel comfortable so that we could focus on experimenting and learning. What an experience!

I finally have a huge file of resources so I’ll be able to plan multicultural lesson very active ways.

Student agency? Never understood it before. now I see that I need to give more control to my students so that they’ll be empowered and more responsible in the future. It isn’t easy, but the workshops really clarified why we need to structure lessons so the students do more and we support them more.
