Ms Mantadaki wrote about her session:

This seminar emphasises how English teachers can incorporate values into the EFL classroom. Beyond words and grammar, language shapes how we perceive the world and interact with others. By integrating values such as kindness, respect and empathy, students learn to appreciate diversity, build character and collaborate to make a positive impact on the world. Join us to discover practical strategies for nurturing these values in the EFL classroom and empowering students to become compassionate global citizens.

​The speaker wrote about the event 

Education does not change the world. Education changes people. People change the world (Paulo Freire). The principles of SEL can shape the way we teach in ELT. But can they change the world? In this talk we will ponder how SEL can also be used towards achieving UN Sustainable Development Goals and making a difference in our world. Exciting existing projects towards that will also be discussed.

​We thank Eftychis for accepting our invitation and we do hope to see you all there.
