Positive English Teaching

Throughout thirty years of teaching, the students and parents that I have met, together with my post-degree education have led me to embrace with growing conviction an approach inspired to the values of positivity, focused not only on the students’ learning but also on their wellbeing. Since I started studying positive psychology and education at the Psychology Faculty with Professor Andrea Gaggioli, I have introduced positive psychology both in my approach to the students (for example in the individual conversations of “Psychological Help”) and also in the materials and syllabi that I prepare for my English language and literature lessons.
