Language in Action in Victoria!

Stu Blair

I'm delighted to speak at the Association of French Teachers in Victoria 2025 Conference, presenting my dynamic new pedagogy, Language in Action™, where sequential art, language meditation, drama, and improvisation combine to ignite language learning in fresh and transformative ways.

During the practical masterclass, we explore how comics, storytelling, and embodied learning can reframe classrooms into immersive, student-centred spaces.

After a series of fantastic presentations in South Australia and the Australian Capital Territory, I look forward to engaging with teachers during the Victorian stage of the tour!
