About the webinar

Teachers often face the challenge of balancing curriculum requirements with addressing students' personal needs. In many schools, the relationship between teachers and students is limited to academics, leaving little room for understanding or supporting emotional and social challenges. Many students struggle in their personal lives—at home, school, or in their communities—and simply need a space to share their thoughts and feelings.

This webinar emphasizes the role of English clubs as powerful tools to bridge this gap. English clubs provide students with a safe space to express themselves, take on responsibilities, and connect with their peers and teachers on a deeper level. By fostering open communication and mutual understanding, these clubs can help students gain confidence, build resilience, and develop the skills they need to tackle life's challenges while improving their language abilities. Teachers will learn how to use such platforms to create supportive learning environments that go beyond academics and nurture the students.
