When learning an additional language there is a lot to laugh about! But for many students, speaking up can be very intimidating. No one wants to look silly- well, almost no one… Enter Mat Mailandt, award winning comedian and President of Think Fast Comedy. For thirteen years, he’s helped students build confidence, take risks and make joyful mistakes while speaking additional languages! He’s delivered workshops in Canada's largest school boards including the VSB, CBE, CCSD, TDSB, EPSB, and PDSB. For the first time he’s going to share his best language based improv exercises that have been proven to get students engaging, laughing and best of all speaking across the country. You’ll leave this workshop with activities and approaches you can use right away!
