“CREATE TO LEARN, LEARN TO CREATE”

To develop the creativity, confidence and the self-esteem of students in classes we use the theater method. Starting with the first graders, we include interactive games during non-formal activities. We noticed that the students who play improvisation games are experiencing the joy of creativity and become relaxed, also overcome their fears and awaken the emotions that they can express. By developing self-expression, imagination, and direct communication, we strengthen the desire to participate in the education process. Group activities form a friendly and active student community. All in all, we believe that the method of teaching theater proves to be one of the most effective forms of cultural education.
