In each workshop, a trainer/teacher from British Council focused on one emotion – happiness, hope, anger, pride, compassion, nostalgia, sadness etc. - and explored the range of expressions related to it.
Celebrities such as Hossan Leong, Robin Goh and Karen Tan kicked off a session each by describing the emotion in their own creative style. Experiential activities such as drama, role-play, rap, songs, games and collaborative group activities helped the participants talk about the concepts and feelings associated with the words.
