David Heathfield
Researcher
'Storytelling and drama are at the core of my teaching because they are the most effective ways I know of language learners developing their listening and speaking skills and creativity. I am a freelance storyteller and teacher trainer and writer alongside my teaching at INTO the University of Exeter. Sharing and exploring oral stories from world cultures with adults, teenagers and children of all ages is my passion. It is my good fortune to run storytelling and drama workshops with teachers working around the world. In these ways, I learn wonderful stories by listening to them being told by students and teachers from everywhere.'
