Philosophy helps to improve self-esteem and confidence. Listening without judgement, thinking analytically and presenting their ideas confidently enables children to achieve more in every subject and sets them up for success in adult life.
These workshops give children a platform in which to study philosophy and present their thoughts confidently in a fun, supportive group.
Philosophy is for all: those who love to talk will learn about listening with an open mind and a child who is shy will be nurtured to find their voice and express their opinion.
Taught by a qualified Primary School teacher and mentor, groups are limited to 5 children to maximise individual attention.
Feedback: Indivdualised feedback is provided for each child at the end of the workshop.
Parents will be emailed a Zoom link which will enable you to access each session. Having a stable internet connection is vital, as well as enabling your device’s microphone and camera.
Microphones will remain on during debating sessions so children learn the value of listening and talking in a natural environment. Your child’s communication skills will be supported and nurtured whilst an ethos of listening with respect will be instilled in each group.
Your child may like to use revision cards as a helpful prompt when putting forward their argument. Alternatively, I will provide a PDF template that can be used as an additional prompt.
