JOIN US for FUN and LEARNING in ROME'S MUSEUMS We offer a wide range of interactive museum and school programmes for students of all ages, as well as adults, facilitated by expert native English speaking teachers and museum educators. All programmes are designed to foster active learning and engage our audiences in careful observation encouraging the development of English language and critical-thinking skills. Our teaching strategies are based on the most advanced practices and methods with the aim to create meaningful experiences with art. L’arte è lo strumento creativo attraverso il quale esprimere idee ed emozioni e allo stesso tempo imparare a conoscere noi stessi e il mondo che ci circonda, è questa la filosofia! Creiamo esperienze interattive e coinvolgenti che hanno al centro confronto e condivisione. Bambini e ragazzi vengono guidati da insegnanti madrelingua esperti nell'insegnamento dell'arte ai bambini. Attraverso l'analisi, la discussione e la rielaborazione creativa, le opere d'arte diventano il mezzo per acquisire fiducia in sé stessi e nel rapporto con gli altri e, allo stesso tempo, il pretesto per praticare e imparare l’inglese in modo efficace e giocoso. ---------------------------------- ArtandSeek is a non-profit Association.
