About the webinar
How can teachers create inclusive, engaging learning environments when faced with overcrowded classrooms, limited resources, and students with diverse but often invisible needs such as autism and selective mutism? This practical webinar moves beyond theory to offer immediately applicable strategies for teachers working in challenging contexts. Drawing from extensive experience training educators through UNELTA and British Council projects, this session will demonstrate how to leverage local materials, peer support, and simple multilingual approaches to ensure every student, including those with invisible disabilities, can thrive and participate fully.
