Benefits for Students and Educators

Teachers with a demanding curriculum need to set and maintain high standards of concentration and focus.  Humour, play and laughter make the teaching and learning process more enjoyable and memorable.

Using humour and role plays, students experience a number of desirable outcomes: they are more motivated to learn, relate and enjoy their studies. They also retain information easier. Lessons are longer lasting. In the process, many social skills are being taught that benefit families, relationships, and career.
