Online Group Coaching

Commencing January 2023!

We are in the process of planning for the Fall 2023 and Winter 2024. Stay tuned! To stay informed on this future offering, please sign-up for our newsletter

This program supports educators in transforming and/or deepening their Natural Curiosity teaching practice by providing a safe online space for open conversation, community and collegial friendship. A small group (max 20 educators) will meet monthly to unpack key principles in Natural Curiosity. Coaches will loosely structure workshop sessions with ample time for group discussion, challenging participants to reconsider their pedagogical practice while sharing and learning from one another.

We are providing subsidized tickets (covering $100 of the cost!) for folks who self-identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or Person of Colour (or educators that serve Indigenous students). Please email us at naturalcuriosity@utoronto.ca to access your subsidized ticket.
