"Charlie has been to our setting before and was a firm favourite with the children. She is informative but talks to the children at an appropriate level - sharing the info in a language and manner that they understand, learn from, and most importantly enjoy! Thank you for coming to see us again - we all had a lovely session with you.”

Why learn through storytelling?
Using storytelling as a teaching mechanism involves structuring learning around a narrative. It helps children (and adults) make sense of issues and topics by engaging them in a story, making facts easier to remember and participants more open to learning.
The benefits of learning through storytelling do not stop at increasing knowledge of the subject area - storytelling encourages creativity, expands vocabulary, increases attention span and helps to reinforce morals.
