Online Event: Taking your Teaching Artistry Online - Lessons from Nantong with Lindsey Bailey.

Wednesday April 1, 7:00PM EDT

How do we bring our Teaching Artistry Online when all the parameters have changed? What are the unique considerations we need to take? What are the strategies we can employ? Let’s learn together from someone who has been teaching through the COVID-19 outbreak for months. Join me online for a chat with Lindsey Bailey, a Teaching Artist living and working in Nantong, China. We will be discussing the questions above - talking about strategies, coping mechanisms, tools, and leaving plenty of time for Lindsey to address your questions and concerns.
