We’ve been working on stories for four weeks at my creative writing programme, and I’ve been thinking about how storytelling is distinct from story writing. What makes them different? Where do we find overlaps?

To answer these questions and explore the joy of storytelling, I have invited Rohini Vij, a professional storyteller, educator, listed & certified Jolly Phonics UK trainer, curriculum developer, founder of NutSpace, and mom. She is on a mission to raise readers and is actively engaged with curriculum development for schools and her own ed-tech platform – Nutspace Edtech (www.nutspace.in)
She is also a voice artist and regularly creates audiobooks and read-aloud videos for reputed publishing houses in India. She writes actively on the subjects of raising readers, parenting, and integrating storytelling in the classroom. She has authored several stories for children including Discover more with Ford, published by Ford Motors India.

About the Workshop

Sometimes, when we read out literature we love, it doesn’t sound as good as it does in our heads. Why is that? What kinds of stories lend themselves to performance? During this session, storyteller Rohini Vij will address these questions while also working with storytelling as a public speaking tool. Learn to overcome inhibitions as you act out stories. Explore voice acting and breathing techniques, while working on confidence building and ways to manage stage anxiety. Above all, have fun with stories!
