Testimonials

‘Patrice Baldwin is a rarity. She is one of the few primary drama experts left in this country and quite possibly the most experienced and effective drama primary teacher. Teachers on her courses, come away feeling more confident and with a broader repertoire. Her work is excellent!”

I’ve worked with Patrice on a wide range of subject areas for BBC Learning where her creative skills coupled with her deep and practical knowledge of education have proved invaluable. She is a skilled communicator to learners young and not so young and I know that educators and their students across the UK and beyond have benefitted from her skilled teaching.”

You are still the best teacher I have ever seen!”
Trish Lindberg, Professor of Education, Plymouth State University, USA
We were really amazed by the way you did your workshop. You had a wonderful process drama and you were very pedagogical and generous with your ideas, sharing how you were thinking when you made your pedagogical and dramatic choices! You were also very open about how you structured your work and that is a great source for learning.”
Elsa Szatek, Lecturer in Drama Education University of Gävle, Sweden

Absolutely brilliant! Patrice’s course opened doors for colleagues which they would not have believed possible. In everything she does, she walks delegates through the materials, and discusses the impact this has on children’s learning. She uses drama conventions to create opportunities for pupils to secure their learning in new and deeper ways.”

Having worked with you several times now on various courses it is fantastic to see you working with children. Everything I felt nervous about trying was shown to me and I thought I could do that…The course was 100% tailored to meet our needs.”
