REVIEWS
“My students absolutely loved Nadia and Imagine Nation Theatre. She created a safe space for my students to participate in virtually and even those who rarely appear on camera enjoyed the games and took part. I would highly recommend her for in person or virtual experiences as I have had chances to experience both. She is always quick to answer any questions I have and helped align her games with the curriculum. Her programs meet the needs of all ages and abilities!! Definitely will be booking her again!!” Tera Alderson, Grade 5 Teacher
“My students really enjoyed all the drama activities. It was a nice break from every day work. Even some students who don’t usually turn their camera on, had it on during your presentation. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this workshop to others.” Tanya Wade, Grade 4 Teacher
“My students were engaged – mind and body – for the duration.” Yvonne Rees, Grade 3 Teacher
“Nadia was great to deal with and very easy to book. The students were just so excited to see a different face teaching them for a little while. The activities were appropriate for the grade level and most students were engaged! She answered all the student’s questions and listened attentively to what they were sharing with her! It was a great hour of fun and learning for the students and teacher! ;)” Grade 1 Teacher
“All children were engaged, even students that don’t often participate in movement/drama activities. The class loved making funny faces and lots of laughter. Great experience overall. Nadia was very patient and managed the class well.” Kindergarten Teacher
“A very positive experience! The students in our virtual class participated enthusiastically in all the activities. Nadia had them fully engaged.” Anonymous
